In this episode of Keeping it REAL Caregiving On-Air, we learn more about the extensive reach of some of the different people who serve as family caregivers in the United States. Keeping it REAL Caregiving host Julia Yarbough introduces us to family caregiver Dwane T. Hodges.
He is the face and experience of a growing number of family caregivers - MEN - who are tasked with caring for loved ones. In a 2020 report, AARP recorded 39% of the more than 43-million family caregivers in the United States are men.
Mr. Hodges shares with viewers his personal story, some of the challenges and hurdles he faced and overcame, as well as practical tools which helped him survive emotionally after more than a decade of serving as a family caregiver.
