Caring For Caregivers - Gen X Caregiving & the "Sandwich Generation"

Generation X is facing new challenges as caregivers. Jeff Ketchel of Spokane talks with our state director Marguerite Ro about caring for his mother-in-law in his home while raising his children. It's called the Sandwich Generation, where people find themselves caring for the young and the old at the same time. Jeff talks about the ups and downs of this life. In his work life, he's a leader in the public health field so he has both a personal and professional view of caregiving. Jeff talks about how Gen X characteristics can help face caregiving in a new way. Learn more about family caregiving in Washington at aarp.org/caregiversWA
