Military & Veteran Caregiving

Caregiving can be a rewarding, fulfilling, and life-enriching experience. It can also be lonely, demanding and exhausting. For military and Veteran caregivers, it’s even more complex. The challenges of finding a primary care provider, accessing specialist care, navigating complex healthcare systems, and making time for essential self-care are magnified due to frequent moves with little notice or control over where you end up—far from family members, friends and social supports. In this informative, insightful, and inspirational session, the panel will share their experiences as military/Veteran caregivers, explore the latest research, and discuss current policies, emerging programs, and exemplary benefits.
