Today marks the United Nations' International Day of Older Persons, with this year's theme: "Ageing with Dignity: The Importance of Strengthening Care and Support Systems for Older Persons Worldwide."
This theme underscores the urgent need to address the caregiver shortage and to honor their vital contributions. It's essential that we protect both caregivers and those they care for, promoting care that respects the dignity of older adults and empowering them to make decisions about their care and quality of life.
At HCAOA, we advocate for home care providers, ensuring they have the resources and support to enhance caregiver well-being. Together, we can help our older persons age in place in the comfort of their own homes.
