Among the tens of millions of family caregivers, about 12% of them are caring for an ill or disabled spouse or partner. Elements of caring for a spouse or partner differ from other types of caregiving relationships. On average, spousal caregivers provide more hours of caregiving, do more intense care-related tasks and do it all with less assistance compared to other types of caregivers. Professionals who understand the nuances of spousal caregiving can be better positioned to help these individuals.

Participants in this webinar will be able to:

• Learn about the prevalence and characteristics of spousal caregivers
• Understand the challenges unique to spousal caregivers
• Discover support and resources for spousal caregivers
