Up to 40,000 young people in the UK may be caring for a sick or elderly relative but they may not be getting the support they deserve for themselves. This article suggests that health professionals and teachers do not always recognise the problems that young carers face, so cannot support them. The author recommends further training for these professionals to increase their awareness of young carers' needs.
在英国，多达4万名年轻人可能正在照料生病或年迈的亲属，但他们自身可能并未得到应有的支持。本文指出，医疗保健专业人员和教师并不总是认识到年轻照料者所面临的问题，因此无法为他们提供支持。作者建议对这些专业人员进行进一步培训，以提高他们对年轻照料者需求的认识。
