💡 You’re Not Alone
Ever tried answering work emails while checking on your mom’s medication? You’re not the only one. All over Spartanburg, SC, families like yours are managing work, caregiving, and everything in between.
At A Remedy Home Care and Day Center, we work with full-time professionals every day who are trying to care for a parent—especially those living with dementia or a disability.
📊 The Reality for Working Caregivers
- Over 60% of family caregivers in the U.S. also work a full- or part-time job.
- A growing number care for aging parents while also raising children.
- Many spend 40+ hours a week caregiving—on top of their day jobs.
Sound familiar? You’re not alone—and there are resources in Spartanburg to help.
