Legacy Navigator Releases New White Paper on the Expanding Worries of Modern Caregivers

RICHMOND, Va., Nov. 20, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Legacy Navigator, a pioneer in estate cleanout, organization and settlement, today released a new white paper on the landscape of today's Modern Caregiver by examining who today's caregivers are and how their role impacts their lives physically, emotionally and financially.

Based on primary research including the 'Legacy Navigator National Care Survey' of more than 1,000 survey respondents and secondary data, the white paper highlights the unexpectedly extended role today's caregiver plays in our society.

The following key themes emerged from the survey and are detailed in the white paper:

• Today's Caregiving Continues Long After a Death
• Caregiving is Squeezing Gen X
• Gen X Caregivers Risk Damaging Their Careers
• Adult Children Don't Know Enough About Parent Finances
• Aging Parents Have Too Much Stuff
• Key Ways to Care for Caregivers

"We haven't been recognizing the full extent of what Modern Caregivers do," says Matt Paxton, Legacy Navigator founder. "Today's young caregivers end up managing not only their loved one's health, but that person's finances, belongings and even the house after a death."
