90 Million Family Caregivers in U.S.

Two out of every 5 adults are family caregivers. 39% of all adult Americans are caregivers – up from
30% in 2010.

Alzheimer’s is driving the numbers up. 15 million family caregivers caring for more than 5 million
with Alzheimer’s.

But it’s not just the elderly who need caregiving. The number of parents caring for children with
special needs is increasing, too, due to the rise in cases of many childhood conditions.

Wounded veterans require family caregivers, too. 1 million Americans caring in their homes for
service members from the Iraq and Afghanistan wars who are suffering from traumatic brain injury,
post-traumatic stress disorder, or other wounds and illnesses.

And it’s not just women doing the caregiving. Men are now almost as likely to say they are family
caregivers as women are (37% of men; 40% of women). And 36% of younger Americans between ages
18 and 29 are family caregivers as well, including 1 million young people who care for loved ones with
Alzheimer’s.

Family caregivers are the backbone of the Nation’s long-term care system. Family caregivers provide
$450 billion worth of unpaid care each year. That’s more than total Medicaid funding, and twice as
much as homecare and nursing home services combined.
What Family Caregivers Do
 Help with 2.6 ADLs and 4.9 IADLs
 Manage medications (70% of time)
 Provide hands-on patient care (46% perform complex medical/nursing
tasks such as providing wound care, and operating specialized medical
equipment)
 Schedule doctor visits, plan travel to and from visits, and go with
them
 Arrange for home visits by therapists and nurses
 Deal with medical emergencies
 Take care of insurance matters
 Navigate health care system for patient
 Provide emotional support to patient
 Continue doing many of patient’s household duties/take over
“breadwinner” role
Family Caregiver Toolbox
During Transitions of Care,
Family Caregivers Need…
…to be better prepared
to:
 Communicate with
healthcare
professionals
 Become a strong
advocate in healthcare
situations
 Prevent medication
mishaps
…and CAN tools can
help:
 Patient File Checklist
 Doctor’s Office
Checklist
 Medication Checklist
 Safe and Sound:
How to Prevent
Medication Mishaps
Ideally, Hospitals Would…
 Designate caregiver in the patient’s medical
record
 Recognize and include caregiver as part of the
health care team
 Meet with caregiver to discuss patient’s plan
of care
 Notify caregiver before transfer to another
facility
 Instruct caregiver at discharge*
 Follow up on after-care tasks after discharge*

Implementing Caregiver Engagement
• Established a comprehensive, collaborative process between
hospital and home care agency:
– The family caregiver was identified, assessed and engaged by social
worker and care team in the hospital
– This information was given to the home care agency (on-site intake
planners)
– Home nursing visits were arranged to include family caregiver
whenever possible
• Supports to staff:
– Staff given input into the tools used to assess family caregiver needs
– In-services by clinicians (e.g. Chief of Cardiology)
– Weekly meetings of team (hospital and home care agency
combined)
35
Expanding the Care Team
• Family caregivers invited to in-hospital team meetings
with patients.
• Home care visits now included consulting family
caregiver
• “IVR” Interactive Voice Response system:
– Provided care management to patients
– Disease management coaching
– Continuous care coordination with hospital, community
providers, and home visits from a multidisciplinary team
• NYCHHC managed care program (Metro Plus):
– Approved payments for care management, home visits,
and to change formulary to meet patients needs
Breaking through the Barriers to
Caregiver Engagement
• Had to meet the patient and family caregiver where they were
at, and when they could be there
• We focused on strengths not deficits
• “Breakthrough” (LEAN) event:
– Brought care teams together for a week long for program development,
then scheduled weekly case conferences on patients and program
updates
– Scheduled periodic education sessions with members of entire teams
(hospital, out patient, home care, and managed care) including
physicians, field staff, and managed care case managers to bring all
members together and work towards understanding and meeting shared
goals for the patients and the program
Breaking through the Barriers,
continued
• Key intervention:
– Provided medications prior to discharge for patients and
families that had trouble filling prescriptions
• Continually measured our progress and examined successes
and failures
