Shownotes:

Today I'm beginning a series that is specifically for Asian Americans caring for their older loved ones. Asian elders have different needs and our families also have different dynamic than other cultures. Isabel Tom explores the challenges of caring for our Asian elders while also offering three (or four) reminders for the Asian caregiver.
