This caregiving study was commissioned by AARP Hawai'i to gather insight into caregiving experiences of registered voters age 45-plus.  Respondents overwhelmingly support the provisions


of the CARE Act. Key findings include: * More than 80 percent of Hawai’i registered voters age 45-plus support measures in The Caregiver Advise, Record and Enable (CARE) Act. * Nearly


three-quarters of current and former caregivers (72%) say that at some point their loved one was admitted to the hospital. * Nearly all (96%) say it would be important for them to get


instructions if their loved one was being discharged from the hospital.  * About 30% of caregivers that had a loved one hospitalized say they did NOT receive instruction or a demonstration


of medical tasks that they would need to perform. * More than 70 percent of current or former caregivers assisted with complex care like medication management (74%) and other medical tasks


(71%). This report highlights results from registered voters interviewed between September 28 and October 8, 2015. The data was weighted to reflect registered voters in Hawai’i age 45-plus.
