Did you know there are 48 million caregivers in the U.S.? That’s one in 7 of us. Amazing individuals who provide for parents, children, disabled friends or relatives.

Unfortunately it can be a stressful job. 40% say they rarely feel relaxed. 60% say caregiving has increased their levels of stress. And caregiving can feel isolating, stuck at home or in an institution.

Half of adult caregivers have avoided a personal trip with their care recipient due to the difficulties involved.

But wait! Help is on the way. Vacations with your loved ones can create memories that last a lifetime – but you need the right resources and know-how to ensure smooth travel.

Today, we are presenting A Caregiver’s Guide to Travel. Our guest is an AARP Caregiving Expert who is sharing how to plan ahead and create an incredible vacation for both caregivers and their recipients.
