The Better Care Playbook: Supporting Family Caregivers Collection
The Better Care Playbook has published a collection, "Supporting Family Caregivers," which explores programs, practical tools and case studies that support family caregivers.
Family caregivers provide care for individuals with complex health needs, including frail older adults, people living with dementia, and people with disabilities. Caregivers are often involved with transitional care or discharge planning after hospitalization of their family member, and, in the home, typically take on medical tasks otherwise performed by nurses or other clinical staff. With the passage of the Caregiver Advise, Record, Enable Act in many states, and increased national attention on the important role of caregiving, more health systems are thinking about strategies to support family caregivers.
Health care stakeholders can use this Playbook Collection to understand recent evidence behind programs that support family caregivers and explore practical tools and case studies to learn considerations for better supporting caregivers providing complex care.
