Did you know?
Did you know that one out of every nine individuals will live to the age of 90? In 2 years the first of the baby boomers will reach retirement age. And did you know that 60% of caregivers are women.
And the emotion felt most often by caregivers is depression. Often it is related to fatique and stress from the long hours of caregiving.
