Caregivers are the glue that connects vulnerable adults who are living with complex medical, functional and behavioral challenges to the support they need. As the United States faces a serious shortage of nurses and physicians and people continue to live longer with more complex health challenges,the role of family caregivers will only grow in influence.

But caregivers can’t succeed without support, advocacy, and planning.
Evidence reflects that empowered family caregivers improve the health status of people with chronic diseases and disabilities, while reducing cost of care. When caregivers are educated and empowered, unnecessary emergency room and hospital visits are avoided.
