Abstract/ Summary
Some male caregivers may feel overlooked or face discrimination in regard to being a family caregiver. Many must learn new tasks, feel lonely, and experience health problems, yet do not seek outside help. As a male caregiver, it is important to care for yourself as well. Self-care, support groups, and other resources may help in these scenarios. By contacting your Area Agency on Aging, you can discover services available for male caregivers.
