Abstract

The National Alliance for Caregiving (NAC) and the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP, 2004) have reported that 21% of the U.S. population provides family caregiving services to someone over 18 years old. Seventy-nine percent (79%) of these caregivers provide care for someone aged 50 or older. The majority of caregivers work full or part-time, and nearly two-thirds of employed caregivers make work-related adjustments in order to provide care (NAC & AARP, 2004). This article examines eldercare issues of employed caregivers, identifies current public and private policies addressing caregiver needs, presents a process model to assist organizations in creating family-friendly workplaces, and suggests social work roles that support family caregiving.

摘要

美国国家护理联盟(NAC)和美国退休人员协会(AARP,2004年)报告称,美国21%的人口为18岁以上的人提供家庭护理服务。这些护理人员中有79%为50岁及以上的人提供护理。大多数护理人员全职或兼职工作,近三分之二有工作的护理人员为了提供护理而对工作进行与工作相关的调整(NAC&AARP,2004年)。本文探讨了有工作的护理人员的老年护理问题,确定了当前满足护理人员需求的公共和私人政策,提出了一个流程模型以协助组织创建家庭友好型工作场所,并提出了支持家庭护理的社会工作角色。
