The caregivers underwent unstructured i…

  • My Parent—Not Myself

    Open AccessM Wallhagen, Margaret I Wallhagen et al.ARTICLEJournal of Aging and Health1995References: 6

For many the contrast between their general statements supporting care of parents and eschewing it for themselves was quite sharp. Caregiver variables significantly associated w…
