In November, UDW Homecare Providers Union celebrates National Family Caregiver Month and Homecare Provider Appreciation Month to honor the dedication of America’s caregivers. This episode features caregiver Abbey Newberry, who cares for a non-family member named Ken. Ken has an enlarged heart, edema, and recently had a stroke, so Abbey provides care for him in his home to ensure that he stays healthy and can live independently and with dignity. In spite of low IHSS wages in Placer County where Abbey works—homecare workers there haven’t seen a raise in five years—Abbey gives her all to Ken and to her fellow UDW caregivers.
