If you're a daughter or son, sibling, parent, or spouse, or even a friend, some day you may find yourself in the role of "family caregiver". More than 52 million Americans (31 percent of the adult population age 20 to 75) are already there.1 They wear many hats -that of companion, personal shopper, financial manager, chauffeur, housekeeper, cook, personal care assistant, advocate, counselor, nurse, emotional support provider and more. They are a lifeline for the people they support and our long term care system. A study by AARP reveals that at 350 billion dollars, the economic value of non-compensated caregiving exceeds 2006 Exxon Mobile profits.
