Family caregivers are the shadow workforce of our society and the backbone of our healthcare system.
We want family caregivers to feel supported by healthcare providers.
Caregiver-centered care is person-centered care for family caregivers. This approach respects and meaningfully involves the care receiver’s family caregiver in the planning and delivering of supportive services. It also recognizes and addresses caregiver needs and preferences and integrates family caregivers as partners in care.
