Every 7 seconds, another American turns 60; which means their parents turn 80.
Long-Term-Care-One-In-Five[1]

As America ages, U.S. employers face an emerging business challenge due to the much publicized eldercare and care giving resource crisis. Care giving impacts both corporate health care costs and employee productivity. Much of today’s workforce is the “sandwich generation“—challenged with caring for their children and their parents. The average age of a caregiver is 46 years old and the average length of this care giving event is 4.3 years. These commitments impact the health, wellness and productivity of today’s workforce and ultimately, the bottom line of America’s corporations.

*Millions of employees fall into the category of “Presenteeism”—physically at work, but mentally somewhere else due to the fact that they are dealing with the stresses and distractions of care giving for a loved one. Those who have been hands on caregivers know of which we speak. 

We work with employers to educate and provide resources for their employees concerning the issues of extended care and care giving. The benefit to the employer is a healthier and more productive work force. We also educate and prepare employees for that day when they may become the one who is receiving care.
