Many older adults with disabilities in the community rely on paid care, such as home and community-based services, provided by direct care workers like home care aides and personal care attendants. The quality and delivery of this care can vary significantly, particularly for racial and ethnic minority older adults and those with complex conditions such as dementia. This presentation will explore the implications of paid care delivery for older adults from diverse backgrounds living with disabilities, their family care partners, and the direct care workers who support them in the community. Attendees will have the opportunity to participate in a Q&A session at the end of the event.
We are excited to host guests for this hybrid event and encourage individuals to attend in person. After the presentation and Q&A, there will be a reception from 4:00 – 6:00 PM for all attendees. This free event promises to be a wonderful opportunity to connect and learn from Dr. Fabius and CHAI members.
Audience for this event: All are welcome
