Include Patients and Family Caregivers as Partners. One third of family caregivers are in distress. They don’t feel heard. They are overworked and under supported. Unpaid family and friend Caregivers are essential to the health care system. They provide 80% of the care, yet they are often not recognized or included as a partner in care. Our mission is to educate and provide ways you can include and support caregivers as partners in care.
