Family caregiving and aging are inexplicably and deeply interconnected. Helping us see family caregivers and their needs is crucial as we support them in preserving time and energy. Paurvi Bhatt, RCI President and Chief Impact officer, joined American Society on Aging and Home Instead for a comprehensive discussion focusing specifically on RCI's Profiles of Experiences of Caregiving©️, and how the lens elevating the caregiver experience can strengthen partnerships with home care providers supporting families and those in need. By streamlining the complexity of caregiving experiences, these Caregiver Profiles©️help us with more tailored, nuanced, and intentional support to the 105 million family caregivers across the country. The engaging conversation dove into how family caregivers in every family, neighborhood and community can be better supported by the systems, policies, and resources that impact them every day.
