Beschreibung
The report on family care for older people in Germany is based on the
German survey of the six-countries-study EUROFAMCARE. This survey focuses
on the needs of family carers (N=1,003) as well as their cared-for
relatives (65+). The analyses of different care situations show the
influence of social determinants such as supporting services and informal
networks on family caregivers’ burden, health status, quality of life and
quality of support. The report provides politicians, carer organisations
and service providers with data and background information to promote
measures for family carers.
