This report from AARP defines person- and family-centered care, and outlines the
central tenets of each caring philosophy. It explains that family
caregivers can be an invaluable source of care for their loved ones. The
paper argues that public policies should be instituted to provide
greater support to these caregivers, particularly when it comes to
supporting them and coordinating care among nurses, direct-care workers,
and other professional caregivers.
