Every day, 25 million Americans provide care for loved ones. This program, hosted by NewsHour’s Ray Suarez, looks at the rich rewards and wisdom that often attend such care, as well as at the hard work that home healthcare entails. Drawing on the direct experience of family members and others, including author Beth Witrogen McLeod—whose book Caregiving, the Spiritual Journey of Love, Loss, and Renewal was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize—the program also offers caregiving advice and information that is both practical and profound.
