Even before COVID-19, the U.S. was facing a caregiving crisis. And now, well over half of Americans are worrying about, taking care of, or looking out for a friend, neighbor or family member due to pandemic. But as these unpaid caregivers pour their love and energy into this role, many are suffering as a result. In this episode of the Business Group on Health podcast, we speak with Alex Drane about the majesty of caregiving, as well as the human and business imperative of supporting our supporters.
