766-page resource from the company's founder addresses the financial, medical and emotional realities facing family caregivers nationwide, releasing during World Alzheimer's Month LIVONIA, Mich., Sept. 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- All Home Care Matters, a senior care media and advocacy platform based in Livonia, Michigan, today announced the release of Caregiving in America: Understanding, Navigating, and Transforming the Most Important Responsibility Millions of Families Never Expected, a 766-page book written by the company's Founder and Host, Lance A. Slatton. Published by eBookIt.com, the paperback and hardcover editions have been available since July 8, 2026, alongside a digital edition, through major booksellers. The announcement comes during World Alzheimer's Month, observed every September, as the book devotes significant attention to dementia and Alzheimer's caregiving alongside the broader financial, legal and medical challenges families face. According to the "Caregiving in the U.S. 2025" report from AARP and the National Alliance for Caregiving, 63 million Americans nearly one in four adults now provide ongoing care for an adult or child with a complex medical condition or disability, an increase of nearly 20 million caregivers over the past decade. More than 40 percent of caregivers provide high-intensity care, and seven in ten are employed while doing so, according to the same report. All Home Care Matters said the book was developed to give families a practical resource for a role most enter without training or preparation. "Nobody handed my family a roadmap. Like so many families, we learned as we went - through appointments, setbacks, surgeries, exhaustion, difficult decisions and experience," said Slatton. "Years later, after working with families and hearing the stories of caregivers across the country, I kept coming back to the same thought: people deserve to be better prepared than we were." Caregiving in America addresses the practical, medical, legal and financial realities families encounter throughout the caregiving journey, including healthcare navigation, caregiver burnout, dementia and complex conditions, family advocacy, Medicare and Medicaid, Veterans benefits, long-term care insurance, legal planning, home care and care settings, long-distance caregiving, grief and transitions in care. Rather than a single-read title, the book was designed as a working resource, with national and state-by-state information, worksheets, checklists, self-assessments and an expanded glossary that families can return to as their circumstances change. "Family caregivers are often the people holding everything together behind the scenes," Slatton said. "They are coordinating care, advocating at appointments, managing medications, helping with daily activities, navigating insurance and making enormous decisions while still trying to be a spouse, a parent, an employee, a son or a daughter. We cannot continue treating that work as though it exists somewhere outside the healthcare system." Caregiving in America is available now in paperback, hardcover and digital formats through major booksellers.
