The writers note that increasing numbers of states are taking a strong interest in maintaining the strength and durability of family caregivers as the major providers of long-term care for people with dementia. They outline the four main strategies that states have generally utilized to support caregiving families: direct services such as information and referral and respite programs; financial incentives and compensation, including direct payments; tax incentives; and family leave policies. They point out that a number of states have pioneered efforts to address the needs of family caregivers by developing state-funded support programs. They note that New Jersey and California are leading states with progressive caregiving programs, and they describe these model state programs in detail. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
