ARE YOU A CAREGIVER FOR YOUR LOVED ONES?

Caregiving is a challenging task! The most challenging time to provide care for a senior or disabled family member is typically when they are ill.

However, did you know that over 53 million Americans provide unpaid care to friends, family, and neighbors?

The life of the caregiver can frequently be significantly impacted by providing care. Given that the majority of family caregivers must balance their personal lives, paid employment, and taking care of the requirements of the loved ones or friends they are caring for. It is both a rewarding and an unappreciated profession at the end of the day!

November is National Family Caregiver’s Month, and Tender Home Health is delighted to acknowledge and appreciate the more than 65 million Americans who devote their time and energy to this important work.
