We explore the financial challenges caregivers face and the risks to their own health. Dr. Greenhut outlines the importance of distinguishing between a “what to do” list and a “have to” list, urging caregivers to establish priorities and seek outside assistance when needed.

Furthermore, we discuss the significance of knowing available resources, such as geriatric social workers, caregiver advocates, and geriatric nurse managers, who can provide invaluable support and guidance in planning and accessing local resources. Dr. Greenhut shares a sobering statistic: 63 percent of 70-year-old caregivers die before their loved ones. Drawing from her own caregiving experiences with her parents and others, she offers practical insights and advice.
