AARP Washington

The need for family caregivers continues to rise in Washington, as the state contends with an aging population and a shortage of home care workers.

Washington's "Caring for Caregivers" video podcast series features discussions with local experts, community leaders, and caregivers just like you on a range of topics to help you along your caregiving journey.

AARP surveys consistently find that older adults want to remain in their current homes and communities for as long as possible. But our needs can change as we age, and most houses and apartments are designed for young, able-bodied adults and don’t meet the needs of older residents or people with disabilities.

Caring for a family member or close friend is one of the most important roles you’ll play. It may start with driving your loved one to get groceries or to the doctor. Later, you may take more time off from work, prepare meals, or handle bills. No matter where you are in the journey of family caregiving, having a good framework to help guide you and your loved one will make the process easier.
