“…This is crucial for helping families cope by re-establishing equilibrium, and decreasing emotion-focused coping skills, such as denial and avoidance. This type of programme may be instrumental in allowing family caregivers to prevent violence (Paterson et al 2002, Daire et al 2009). It is also the key to breaking the repetitive violence and to forestall the eruption of violence (Nicholas & Rasmussen 2006).…”

“…Despite the negative psychological effects of caregiving, many caregivers report positive outcomes (Daire, Torres, & Edwards, ; Robison, Fortinsky, Kleppinger, Shugrue, & Porter, ). Caregivers who are well supported report higher levels of emotional satisfaction and positive well‐being (Otis‐Green & Juarez, ).…”

As the number of older adults has increased, so has the prevalence of age‐associated needs, including cognitive changes. Correspondingly, more than 43 million people provide care for an older family member whose needs range from basic household maintenance to 24‐hour care. Those who serve aging families exclusively or work with multigenerational families face the challenges of inaccurate and/or incomplete information, confusing and unreachable services, and uncertainty about managing stress and ways to foster resilience within multigenerational family systems. Thus, the purpose of this article is to highlight the prevalence of age‐associated cognitive changes and how they relate to the short‐ and long‐term family resilience processes. More specifically, this article is directed to orient practitioners to the critical roles caregivers play, and individual, relational, and sociological dynamics of cognition, care, and resilience are discussed. The authors provide an overview of assumptions and outcomes related to caregiving, as well as considerations for care recipients, including personhood and empowerment. Finally, because practitioners become a key ingredient in navigating the normative and nonnormative processes of aging, the authors provide a checklist of relational processes to focus on when working with aging families, along with specific recommendations for practice for family life educators and marriage and family therapists.

“…Studies have shown that family demands decrease health for some, but not all, people (Artazcoz et al, 2004;Regidor et al 2010); and caregivers often neglect their own health needs because of high family demands (Daire, Torres, & Edwards, 2009). Studies have shown that family demands decrease health for some, but not all, people (Artazcoz et al, 2004;Regidor et al 2010); and caregivers often neglect their own health needs because of high family demands (Daire, Torres, & Edwards, 2009).…”

“…Not surprisingly, with inconsistent measures of family demands, there is little consistency in the research findings. Studies have shown that family demands decrease health for some, but not all, people (Artazcoz et al, 2004;Regidor et al 2010); and caregivers often neglect their own health needs because of high family demands (Daire, Torres, & Edwards, 2009). No research was available on how subjective family demands influenced health.…”

Using data from the National Survey of Midlife Development in the United States and using the stress process model, this study compared caregiving parents and caregiving adult children with regard to health outcomes. The study sample consisted of 74 caregiving parents and 219 caregiving adult children. Predictors included type of family relationship, provision of activities of daily living, duration of caregiving, and family demands. Social support did not mediate the relations between significant predictor variables and health outcomes. The type of family relationship was associated with health outcomes with caregiving parents demonstrating poorer self‐perceived health and more chronic conditions than caregiving adult children. Perceived family demands were associated with increased number of chronic conditions for caregiving adult children and caregiving parents. Unlike previous studies that measured objective family demands, perceived family demands was found to have a strong association with the number of chronic health conditions for both groups of caregivers.
