Home-Based Care for the Elderly - 75% of Seniors Live Outside of Family Relationships

According to statistics from the Department of Health and Human Services, 75% of elderly Americans (75 and older) live alone or have been institutionalized. Will these trends reverse, or only get worse since the elderly population will double over the next 20 years? On this edition of the show, we interview Elizabeth Hugo, who has written an excellent little book - "Lessons from My Papa - A Daughter's Journey Caring for Her Elderly Father." Kevin Swanson calls for a new movement of conferences and support for families that provide relational, home-based care for seniors.
