Why does Senior Sidekicks focus on caregivers? In 2008, our first year of operation a caregiver died young. She had ignored her own health until it was too late. Her Alzheimer’s-afflicted Mother survived! This incident demonstrated the need to focus on caregivers as well as their seniors. Times have changed. In 1910, the average life expectancy in Sangamon County, Illinois was 51-53 years. By 2010, life expectancy had reached over 75. Our ancestors never faced this phenomenon at the scale we now experience. Caregiving In America a recent research report states that 1 in 6 adults is already a caregiver!
