Welcome
"More than 12 million people in the United States, about 80 percent of whom are age 50 or older and about half of whom are age 65 or older, need some kind of long-term care. Among those who are 50+ years of age, the average age is 75; the average age of all care recipients is 66. Nearly two-thirds of care recipients are female. Many of those in need of care simply cannot go without it-about 20 percent of adults needing assistance are unable to find someone to help, either paid or voluntary".
At Home There is Always Hope
These data from the recently published Report of MetLife and Schmieding Foundations "Care giving in America" as well as long term demographic trends in US population aging and poor preparedness of American Society to meet it are the main factors that encourage us to expend our activity and intensify our efforts to help senior Americans as well as people of other ages to find assistance they need.
