摘要
Currently, over 16 million dementia caregivers in the US provide over 18 billion hours of care. As the number of persons living with dementia increases, so too will the number of family caregivers. Given the projected steady growth in caregivers and their health-related needs in caring for persons living with Alzheimer disease and related dementias, several initiatives are underway that focus on caregivers. One overlooked mechanism to meet caregiver needs is the National Institute on Aging's Alzheimer's Disease Research Centers (ADRCs). Through secondary analysis, we present a picture of dementia caregiving from the National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center's database and discuss a call to action for ADRCs to engage caregivers and further support the mission of the ADRC to advance the field of dementia research.
