By 2030, demographic shifts project that one in five Americans will be 65 years of age or older. This dramatic increase in the aging population poses significant challenges, especially for healthcare systems already stretched thin. A crucial concern is the widening care gap when patients are discharged from hospitals and enter home-based care, where care is often provided by family members who are untrained in healthcare practices. This transition is fraught with risks, including poor management of chronic conditions and higher rates of hospital readmission and ED visits. This webinar offers a timely and critical solution: the strategic inclusion of unpaid caregivers as vital extensions of healthcare teams. By doing so, we not only bridge the chasm of home-based care but also infuse healthcare organizations with a distinctive competitive advantage. In an industry where differentiation is key, the role of informal caregivers could be the decisive factor that sets your organization apart from your competitors. Learning Objectives:
Understand the Care Gaps at Home: Examine the challenges associated with the transition from hospital to home, where the absence of professional healthcare can lead to poor outcomes. Incorporate Family Caregivers into Care Teams: Explore how to extend care into the home by bringing informal caregivers into the care team, offering invaluable support for chronic condition management and reducing emergency visits. Build Competitive Advantage through Caregiver Support: Uncover how investing in caregiver education and support can differentiate your health system in a crowded market.
