Ageism is a major problem in the United States and around the world. Ageism has negative effects on the health and well-being of older adults, and can lead to bias and discrimination in healthcare, employment, and other settings. Dr. Haley reviews the evidence on the pervasive negative effects of ageism, and ways to change the widespread pessimism about aging among the general public and professionals. He notes recent research that documents that negative stereotypes about aging are false, and demonstrates how these have had ill effects during the COVID-19 pandemic. He also presents evidence about how older adults are generally showing remarkable psychological resilience during these challenging times.

With the aging of the US population, increasing numbers of older adults develop chronic illness and disabilities. Family members often become caregivers for their loved ones with conditions ranging from mild impairment, through highly disabling conditions such as Alzheimer's disease. About 18 million Americans provide care for an older adult with impairments in daily activities. This presentation provides an overview of the value and importance of caregiving to allow older adults to remain in the community and prevent or delay nursing home placement; the stresses faced by family caregivers; impact of caregiving on psychological well-being and health; coping tips for caregivers; and how friends, families, employers, and healthcare and social service professionals can assist caregivers. Caregiving will be an increasing challenge in the United States and we should all be informed about challenges, and potential solutions, faced by family caregivers.
