Caregivers of older adults with cancer
Reena Jayani et al. Semin Oncol Nurs. 2012 Nov.
Abstract
Objective: To review key aspects of family caregiving as it applies to older adults with cancer, discuss the implications of caregiving on the physical and emotional health of caregivers, and discuss future research needs to optimize the care of older adults with cancer and their caregivers.
Data sources: Literature review.
Conclusion: The number of older adults with cancer is on the rise and these older adults have significant caregiving needs. There is a physical, emotional, and financial toll associated with caregiving.
Implications for nursing practice: As the population of the United States ages, it will be even more important that we identify vulnerable older adults, understand their caregiving needs, and mobilize health care and community resources to support and assist their caregivers.
