These caregivers play an essential role in caring for injured or wounded service members and veterans. This enables those for whom they are caring to live better quality lives, and can result in faster and improved rehabilitation and recovery. Yet playing this role can impose a substantial physical, emotional, and financial toll on caregivers. This report summarizes the results of a study designed to describe the magnitude of military caregiving in the United States today, as well as to identify gaps in the array of programs, policies, and initiatives designed to support military caregivers. Improving military caregivers' well-being and ensuring their continued ability to provide care will require multifaceted approaches to reducing the current burdens caregiving may impose, and bolstering their ability to serve as caregivers more effectively. Given the systematic differences among military caregiver groups, it is also important that tailored approaches meet the unique needs and characteristics of post-9/11 caregivers."--Abstract. 541 $d 20190531. 650 $a Veterans $x Medical care $z United States. 650 $a Veterans $x Mental health services $z United States. 650 $a Veterans $x Health and hygiene $z United States. 650 $a Veterans $x Psychological aspects. $z United States $x Psychological aspects. 650 $a Veterans $x statistics & numerical data. 650 $a Medicine, Military $z United States. 650 $a Military social work $z United States. 650 22 $a Disabled Persons $x rehabilitation. 650 22 $a Socioeconomic Factors. 650 $a Caregivers $x Services for $z United States. 650 $a Caregivers $x statistics & numerical data. 650 $a Military nursing $z United States. 650 22 $a Social Support. 650 $a Psychology, Military. 650 22 $a Needs Assessment $x statistics & numerical data. 651 7 $a United States. 655 2 $a Statistics. 700 $a Tanielian, Terri L.,. 700 $a Fisher, Michael P.,. 700 $a Vaughan, Christine Anne,. 700 $a Trail, Thomas, $d 1967- 700 $a Epley, Caroline,. 700 $a Voorhies, Phoenix,. 700 $a Robbins, Michael William,. 700 $a Robinson, Eric,. 700 $a Ghosh-Dastidar, Bonnie,. 710 $a Rand Corporation. 710 $a Ramchand, Rajeev., $d Santa Monica : RAND Corporation, 2014. 856 $u http://www.jstor.org/stable/10.7249/j.ctt6wq7xq $3 JSTOR 856 $u http://www.rand.org/pubs/research_reports/RR499.html $3 Rand 941 $a 1 952 $l YGPC162 $d 20190717042322.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=52EF8870A85911E99256B50E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
