Understanding Caregiving

Caregiving encompasses a wide range of responsibilities, often falling on the shoulders of the sandwich generation—those balancing their own families with the care of aging parents. The discussion highlights the increasing need for support as families become more dispersed and the challenges faced by new caregivers who may be unprepared for their roles. Insights reveal that caregiving is not just a women's issue; men are also stepping up to provide care for elderly loved ones, emphasizing the universal nature of this experience.
