Caregivers: Most Are Working Women

Editorial Team

Most people who take care of an elderly person at home are women, many of whom juggle part-time caregiving and fulltime job requirements, USA Today reports. The paper says that caregivers provide an average of 20 hours of care a week, most of it for a relative. The number of caregivers going to work late, leaving early or taking time off has increased since 2004 by 8%.

    My frustration is building while trying to find work due to the fact that I was mostly a stay at home mom. Don’t companies know the type of work experience stay at home moms have? We can do everything and anything not to mention multi tasking. We work hard and long hours. If we have given our families all that we have, why wouldn’t we give our job/career the same? We should not be judged by a piece of paper that states whether we have an associates or bachelor degree.
