Caregiver Chats Episode 54: Why Respite Matters: Insights from the 2025 Caregiving in the US Report

Dr. Lakelyn is joined by nationally recognized caregiving and equity expert Jason Resendez to explore the newly released Caregiving in the U.S. 2025 report. Together, they unpack emerging trends in caregiving and focus on one critical gap: the underuse of respite care— breaks that give caregivers time to rest and recharge. With nearly 4 in 10 caregivers reporting that respite services would be helpful, but only 13 percent actually using them, the conversation highlights why access to this type of support matters for caregivers’ emotional, physical, and financial well-being. Episode highlights include: Key findings from the 2025 Caregiving in the U.S. report The growing diversity and complexity of caregiving Why respite care is essential and why so few caregivers access it Types of respite care available and where to find support Jason’s insights on advancing caregiving equity and systemic change Helpful links from the episode: Caregiving in the U.S. 2025 Full Report - caregivingintheus.org National Alliance for Caregiving - caregiving.org Final your local Area Agency on Aging - eldercare.acl.gov/home ARCH National Respite Network and Resource Center- archrespite.org Visit www.homeinstead.com/care-resources for more caregiver support National Adult Day Services Association (NADSA) - nadsa.org/locator To learn more about this podcast and to subscribe to our caregiving newsletters, visit www.homeinstead.com/caregiverchats.
