Study Reveals Mental Health Challenges Faced by Sandwich Carers Balancing Dual Care Responsibilities

Credited from: INDIATIMES

  • A recent study by the University College of London reveals that individuals caring for both parents and children, termed sandwich carers, experience significant mental health issues.
  • The research indicates a decline in both mental and physical health among these caregivers over time compared to non-caregivers.
  • Stress and anxiety lead to exhaustion, with many sandwich carers leaving the workforce to cope with their overwhelming responsibilities.
  • The study found that both men and women suffer equally from these mental health impacts, particularly those dedicating more than 20 hours a week to caregiving.
  • The researchers urge for societal recognition and support systems to address the challenges sandwich carers face, emphasizing the need for targeted resources.
