Summary

This study investigated how a care recipient's level of independence impacts a carer's wellbeing and career development. The article provides a range of suggestions for caregivers, employers, and policy makers, including employers gaining more insight into the type of support that carers find most useful, educating managers about the importance of supportive work arrangements, reducing the stigma carers may experience when disclosing their caregiving responsibilities, and improving access to respite services.
