520 Little has been reported about "military caregivers"--The
population of those who care for wounded, ill, and injured
military personnel and veterans. This report summarizes
the results of a study designed to describe the magnitude
of military caregiving in the United States today, as well
as to identify gaps in the array of programs, policies,
and initiatives designed to support military caregivers.
520 "While much has been written about the role of caregiving
for the elderly and chronically ill and for children with
special needs, little is known about "military caregivers"
--The population of those who care for wounded, ill, and
injured military personnel and veterans. These caregivers
play an essential role in caring for injured or wounded
service members and veterans. This enables those for whom
they are caring to live better quality lives, and can
result in faster and improved rehabilitation and recovery.
Yet playing this role can impose a substantial physical,
emotional, and financial toll on caregivers. This report
summarizes the results of a study designed to describe the
magnitude of military caregiving in the United States
today, as well as to identify gaps in the array of
programs, policies, and initiatives designed to support
military caregivers. Improving military caregivers' well-
being and ensuring their continued ability to provide care
will require multifaceted approaches to reducing the
current burdens caregiving may impose, and bolstering
their ability to serve as caregivers more effectively.
Given the systematic differences among military caregiver
groups, it is also important that tailored approaches meet
the unique needs and characteristics of post-9/11
caregivers."--Abstract.
