Caregivers
Are you caring for an aging parent and wondering how you are going to manage when you need help? Understanding the need to plan for long-term care is important for everyone, especially women.
Among people 75 and older, women are 60% more likely than men to need help with one or more of the activities of daily living.
Not only are women more likely to need care, women are also more likely to suffer financially from giving care. One national study on women and caregiving highlighted the conflicting demands of work and eldercare. The study found that:20
33% of working women decreased work hours
29% passed up a job promotion, training or assignment
22% took a leave of absence
20% switched from full-time to part-time employment
16% quit their jobs
13% retired early
