Senior Home2Home Assists Caretakers to Avoid Undue Stress
San Antonio, TX (PRWEB) November 01, 2013 -- According to a Johns Hopkins-led study, those who assist a chronically-ill or disabled family member enjoy an 18 percent survival advantage compared to statistically-matched non-caregivers.
“Taking care of a chronically-ill person in your family is often associated with stress, and caregiving has been previously linked to increased mortality rates,” says first author David L. Roth, Ph.D., director of the Johns Hopkins University Center on Aging and Health.
