Sinopse

The share of American adults providing uncompensated care to friends or family members with serious medical conditions and the elderly is growing rapidly. What is even more alarming is that thirty percent of long term facilities could face bankruptcy in the coming years, forcing even more of the caregiving impact in-home and onto unpaid family and friends. Dr. James Polo discusses the psychological impact of long term caregiving and shares some of the strategies for staying well.
