You may not realize that during the holidays, many employees will navigate a new realization that their aging parents or loved ones need more support in the new year. Families come together and see that their parent needs additional support living at home, moving to a new community, or one parent is having challenges meeting the level of care their partner needs.
In fact, January 2nd is a peak day for online searches to find senior care resources. On their first day back at work, employees’ hearts and minds are still focused on how to get their loved ones the help they need.
Managers and HR leaders can take simple steps to support their colleagues—just like organizations honor and support new parents, we need to honor and support new family caregivers too. December and January are prime months when they need it, and AARP has what you need to do it.
Join us to learn about why the holidays are a peak time of stress for working family caregivers—and how you can be a source of support. You’ll discover:
• Practical resources to help employees anticipate and prepare for their new caregiving role
• Free tools to help managers empower the caregivers on their teams
• Ongoing access to the full suite of free resources for employers and employees from AARP Family Caregiving
• How to sign up to host a Prepare to Care webinar for your employees (Pro tip: schedule it for January 2nd to be there for your team when they need it most!)
This webinar is free and will be recorded.
