While the challenges of dependent and elder caregiving are increasingly recognized, the complex dynamics of these experiences remain poorly understood.
Facilitated by Brooke Cutler, join this insightful discussion with Alison Varco, Ms. @Evelyne_Opondo, @PaurviBhatt, and Dr. @mhealthnurse as they delve into the value caregiving adds, the leadership skills it lends to the workplace, and strategies to advocate for novel systems and policies that reflect the current workforce profile.
