FAMILY CAREGIVERS - CONNECTICUT - CT BRAIN INJURY COMMUNITY SERVICES - ABI TBI Did you know? About 44.4 million persons in the U.S. are family caregivers 46 is the average age of a family caregiver 61% of family caregivers are women 4.3 is the average length of time (in years) that family caregivers provide care 59% of family caregivers are employed SOURCE: Caregiving in The U.S., National Alliance for Caregiving & AARP, Funded by the MetLife Foundation and the Mature Market Institute® Approximately 22.9 million households provide unpaid care to an adult family member or friend who is age 18 and older. On average, family caregivers provide 21 hours of care per week. This “free” care, however, is not without cost; many family caregivers feel isolated, stressed by balancing work, family, and caregiving, and perhaps even depressed. The value of family caregiving to society has been estimated to be $306 billion annually. Nearly 60% of those caring for an adult over age 50 are working, the majority of them full time. In the past, responsibilities for caregiving almost exclusively belonged to women, but currently about 39% of caregivers are men. SOURCE: Study by the Mature Market Institute® and National Alliance for Caregiving in cooperation with the National Association of Area Agencies on Aging In one important study done by the Mature Market Institute, those surveyed said they made at least one formal adjustment to their work schedule as a result of caring for a partner or other family member: 16% quit their job 20% cut back to part-time 22% took a leave of absence Respondents also stated that caregiving affected their ability to advance on the job: 29% passed up a promotion, training or assignment 25% passed up an opportunity for job transfer or Job relocation 22% were unable to acquire new job skills SOURCE: Findings from a National Study by the National Alliance for Caregiving and the National Center on Women and Aging at Brandeis University; Findings collected and issued by Mature Market Institute® called “MetLife Juggling Act Study: Balancing caregiving with work and the costs involved” – 1999 Nearly six in ten caregivers (59%) say they have worked at some time while they were actively providing care. Of these, six in ten (62%) say they had to make some work-related adjustments in order to help the person they care for. More than half (57%) of working caregivers say that as a result of their caregiving responsibilities they have had to go in (to work) late, leave early, or take time off during the day to provide care.

This program facilitates the opportunity for these individuals to remain in the comfort of their homes, thereby circumventing the need for institutionalization in long-term care facilities, nursing homes, or similar establishments. Personal Care Attendants are employed to aid program participants in carrying out their activities of daily living (ADLs), promoting an independent lifestyle within their own homes. Please note that there is a waiting list for enrollment into this program. Eligibility for the PCA program is determined through a two-part process.

These essential ADLs include: Bathing – Assistance required for appropriate personal hygiene Dressing – Assistance required for appropriate attire Eating/Feeding – Assistance required for proper nourishment (excluding meal preparation) Toileting – Assistance required for proper restroom usage and subsequent personal hygiene Transfer – Assistance required for safe mobility between chairs or bed Medication – Assistance required for the preparation and administration of prescribed medication Behavioral – Daily supervision required to prevent self-harm or harm to others. The second part of the eligibility process pertains to financial criteria. Applicants must qualify for Medicaid by the time services are received. While applicants do not need to meet Medicaid's financial thresholds while on the PCA waiting list, they must have applied and qualified for Medicaid by the time they are selected from the waiting list. Personal Care Attendants, often referred to as PCAs, are a critical component of the healthcare sector. They provide one-on-one, in-home care for clients, enabling them to uphold their independence and live as comfortably as possible. Numerous PCA positions are available nationwide, offering a fulfilling career path for individuals who demonstrate compassion, patience, and a commitment to assisting others.

These roles are widely available and can offer a rewarding career for those with a passion for helping others. Applicants must successfully navigate a rigorous interview process, pass a drug screening, and present a professional resume.
