home care

Medicaid sometimes pays family members to provide in-home care for relatives. But the programs vary from state to state.

A new initiative from the Labor Department aims to up outreach and enforcement related to such issues.

As the U.S. population over age 65 grows, so will demand for long-term care. Maine voters will consider a possible solution at the ballot box on Nov. 6: universal home care. But should it be paid for by taxing high income earners?

Also, we want to hear from you: Do you or a family member need a home caregiver and can't find one? If you're a home caregiver, what's your industry like?
