Why Companies Should Care for their Caregivers: A Call to Action

Every 8 seconds a person turns 65 in the U.S. That’s 10,000 people every day! With an increase in the aging population and a decrease in the long-term care workforce, it’s highly likely that your employees are providing care for a loved one. Why should employers care? Caregiving can take a toll on an employee’s job performance and they often make the decision to quit because they do not get the right kind of support they need from their employers. In this presentation, Executive Director Dr. Lisa Rill will help you understand the challenges your employees’ face with regards to aging, learn the difference between benefits such as finding care and preparing for the aging process, and figure out whether you are offering your employees the aging benefits they need.
