Parent Caregivers: A Comparison of Employed and Not Employed Daughters.

Barnes, Carla Leddy; And Others

Social Work, v40 n3 p375-81 May 1995

Describes parental caregiving among three groups: (1) employed daughters; (2) daughters not employed while caregivers; and (3) daughters who ended employment to continue caregiving. Examines daughters' reactions to caregiving, their involvement with care tasks, and their use of formal and informal assistance. Daughters who terminated employment seemed to need caregiving support the most. (RJM)
