Download or read book The 2030 Caregiving Crisis written by Henry Moss and published by Bookbaby. This book was released on 2015-12-31 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. lacks a long-term care system. The closest it has is Medicaid, a safety net program for the very poor. According to the Department of Health and Human Services, 90% of older persons receiving help with activities of daily living (ADLs) in 2011 relied on some "informal" care, from family members and friends. About two thirds relied on only informal care. Family and friends collectively provided 75-80% of total care hours in non-institutional settings. Synthesizing the latest research, this book argues that we are underestimating the extent of caregiving need for baby boomers when they become the oldest old in 2030-2050. It also suggests we are overestimating boomer health and wealth. Disability levels will likely grow beyond expectations, through an increasing incidence and prevalence of dementia, mobility disorders, and general frailty, the result of increasing levels of obesity, hypertension, and atherosclerosis. Correspondingly, the caregiving situation will get much worse. The tidal wave of boomer retirement is upon us along with the "birth dearth" that followed. Family caregivers, adult children in particular, face bleak prospects. Adult children of boomers will be dealing with work obligations, their children's college expenses, the effects of the recent recession, and ongoing economic stagnation. They will be hard-pressed to take on the extent of caregiving that will be needed by the huge boomer generation. This book makes the case for recruiting and training millions of additional personal care aides as boomers age into their 80s and face chronic illness and severe disability. The aides will be needed to assure safety and emotional well-being and to relieve overburdened family members. They should be deployed into private homes, senior residences, and even nursing homes to ensure quality person-centered care for up to 24/7. Medicare, or a new insurance program, should make such assistance universally available.

Book excerpt: My background in Elder Care Planning and Living Trust allowed me to help my parents preserve their assets, while avoiding spending down their money to a nursing home. There are so many programs that are available for seniors, but they don't know where to turn for proper help. I will guide you step-by-step and point you in the right direction: emotionally, financially, and physically. Learn the difference between assisted living and nursing home facilities; also, government programs, such as: free pair of shoes, free phone, and monthly income for your parent's needs. All are available to help defray your costs. Learn coping skills as a care-giver as well as getting the respect you deserve while grieving. Learn how to take care of you and your loved one. I had the honor of caring for both my parents. My father suffered with prostrate cancer and it had gone into his bones; I talk briefly about a drug that virtually took away his pain in the last 3 months of his life; most doctors haven't heard of it. After his demise, (I found out I had breast cancer), I was then faced caring for my mother (age 91, suffering with Alzheimer's and Diabetes), for many years. Learn about care-giving skills that will work for you. Come with me on My Roller Coaster Journey with "My Two Best Friends." Researchers have now linked Alzheimer's and Diabetes, the two are a deadly combination. Please remember to donate to your local or state Alzheimer's Aid Society, where further research is greatly needed. Anyone will benefit from my book; plan now, don't wait for the need. If you like my book, please tell you family and friends; help me spread awareness to the American public and in other countries.

Book excerpt: They are a demographer's delight and a marketer's challenge. They are the baby boomers, and conservative estimates put them in control of 70 percent of disposable income in the United States. They are also growing older, developing health issues and are often caregivers for their own aged parents.

It traces the myriad health, social, economic and psychological realities of facing the mortality of one's own parents and preparing for them in a way that will reduce stress and provide administrative clarity.
