Video Interactive – Perspectives on Caregiving (2018)
Unpaid family members and friends provide much of the long-term care that older Americans need to remain in their homes and communities as they age.

This AP-NORC Center video interactive explores the perspectives of these informal caregivers.

According to a new survey by the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research, 35 percent of caregivers have skipped routine care, 33 percent skipped a recommended treatment, and 31 percent didn’t go to the doctor at all when sick or injured as a result of their caregiving responsibilities. Others cite impacts to their personal finances. Still, 60 percent say they feel supported in their role as a caregiver.
