AnnotherThe Roosevelt Inst report:
“‘Long-term care is not just an individual health issue, but a structural driver of wealth inequality….By maintaining a system that depends on unpaid family caregiving, provides public support only after families have nearly exhausted their savings, & allows private, profit-driven companies to capture rising care costs, the US effectively penalizes aging.’”

“…even as it wipes out intergenerational wealth, the way we finance long-term care is likely to get even harder on American families. That’s because of…Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act.
“It gave $1 trillion in tax cuts to the richest 1%…, while it cut a similar amount from Medicaid & the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance program [SNAP].…”

Ian ChardI'm struggling for ideas to make my parents' lives easier. Mum's mobility has deteriorated to the point where she's struggling to transfer herself from her wheelchair. Right now what we need is a service we could call where someone comes and helps... but there doesn't seem to be anything between 'call a friend' and 'call an ambulance'. Ideas most welcome; I just don't know what to do or who to talk to. #eldercare #elderly

Natasha WarnerDogs this weekend, and another Tucson mural! My son and his partner came over with 3 dogs. 2 like to play-fight. Would you want that set of jaws pouncing on you? I also took pictures of one of the dogs at the assisted living my stepfather is at. Plus a mural I biked by. #dogs #eldercare #Tucson #Arizona
