New research reveals that Georgia is among the top states where caregivers are experiencing high levels of burn out. Many of the middle-aged caregivers are now being called the “sandwich generation” as they care for both their aging parents and adult-aged children who are financially strapped. For Thursday’s edition of “Closer Look,” Rose talked with several guests about the unique challenges caregivers face and resources that are available.
Guests include:
Marlena Del Hierro, a gerontologist and the vice-president of Partnerships at Seniorly
Rev. Katie Bond, the executive minister for operations and the director of Respite Care at Peachtree Christian Church
Stan Sharp, a volunteer caregiver for The Legacy Club: A Community Respite for Adults at Peachtree Christian Church
