Aging Matters Podcast: Adult Caregiving and Employer Support with Terry Fulmer, PhD, RN, FAAN, and Ken Dychtwald, PhD

2025 Aging Matters Podcast 1

The Aging Matters Podcast has released a new episode, "Adult Caregiving and Employer Support with Terry Fulmer, PhD, RN, FAAN, and Ken Dychtwald, PhD."

The number of U.S. workers caring for older adults has surpassed those caring for preschool children. Because Americans age 65+ are the fastest-growing segment of the population, the number of elder caregivers will continue to increase. To meet the eldercare challenge, employers must develop new or expanded policies, programs and benefits.

On this podcast episode, host Cheryl Beversdorf talks with Terry Fulmer, president of The John A. Hartford Foundation, and Ken Dychtwald, founder and CEO of Age Wave, about responsibilities related to caregiving for older relatives, challenges facing workers who provide eldercare, and elements that employers should include in a policy to support these workers.
