If we’re lucky, we grow old.
See our children grow up. We become grandparents.
But as more people live past eighty...more need caregiving.
Join us for a new season of Untangled where we will unpack our eldercare system and explore if we, as a society, are prepared to support our future aging population.
The number of people over 80 is projected to increase by 80% in just the next five years…but the number of caregivers is estimated to increase by only one percent.
WOSU Public Media is launching a multi-media series on this important topic called Inside: Caregiving. You can find all our reporting at wosu-dot-org-slash-inside. Plus join us on TV and streaming platforms for a LIVE town hall on February 26th
And, of course, be sure to listen to Untangled: Caregiving Mondays at 11 on 89-7, NPR News, and weekly on this podcast feed.
