A program for caregivers in the workplace

B Ingersoll-Dayton, N Chapman and M Neal
Graduate School of Social Work, Portland State University, OR 97207.

In four demonstration sites, an educational seminar series was offered to employed caregivers, followed by a choice of service options (i.e., care planning, a support group, a buddy system). An increase in absenteeism and knowledge of aging services was associated with attendance at the seminar series. Among the service options, only care planning and support groups were utilized by employees. A decrease in negative affect was associated with each of the options.
