Family caregivers are doing clinical work without clinical tools.
Denise Brown just published data from 590 of them. On average they carry 34.7 of 53 care responsibilities across 8.3 of 9 caregiving domains. They put in 61.4 hours a week and have been doing it for 9.4 years.
11.4% reported 168 hours a week. That is every hour there is.
At $55 an hour, the average comes to $172,718 a year of work nobody pays for.
A professional doing that job would have training, protocols, software and a team. Most caregivers are working it out at the kitchen table.

Currently watching Alabama v Texas A&M on an alternative ESPN channel with no play by play announcers or analysts. Only commentary is what fans in the stadium hear. Cannot overstate how enjoyable this is.

Worthwhile losing a little sleep to watch the Alcarez- Shelton match. Some scintillating tennis from both players. Incredible. New career benchmark win for Shelton.

Sports broadcasts are becoming less and less tolerable. The continue to add “analysts” who feel a need to speak as much as possible, all of which crowds out action. For example,the intro to the Masters broadcast is absurd. Show highlights from the week with 1 or 2 commentators and get rid of everyone else.

I am tired of hearing “why are you single; you’re such a great catch.” Apparently, many women are now catch and release fishing.
