More than 48 million Americans, including 74,000 here in the District, are family caregivers. It is one of the most important jobs we will ever do, and one of the most difficult. Family caregivers help their older parents, spouses and other loved ones live independently – managing medications, preparing meals, helping with bathing and dressing and so much more.
Throughout 2024, AARP DC continued to advocate for policies to empower District residents to improve their lives and choose where and how they live as they age. AARP DC has a long history of supporting older District residents who want to live independently as they age. This year, AARP DC fought for issues that matter most to seniors, their families and caregivers.

While it’s easy to be skeptical, AI is not here to replace doctors, nurses, or receptionists. Careful use of AI can help with behind-the-scenes tasks that often pull healthcare teams away from direct patient care allowing your doctor to be present when they are with you in the exam room.
