In May we pay tribute to the generations of Asian and Pacific Islanders who have enriched America’s history and are instrumental in its future success. This caregiver spotlight episode echoes all of these sentiments.
Meet Paurvi Bhatt, a dedicated Family caregiver, care advocate, and second-generation Indian American with deep personal and professional Caregiving experience. Raised in a Family of caregivers, Paurvi spent nearly 30 years balancing her career as a ‘working daughter’ while managing Caregiving responsibilities.
In this episode of the Happy Healthy Caregiver podcast, we explore critical gaps in the U.S. care Economy, particularly for first- and second-generation immigrants, including challenges with language, care plans, and services. We also discuss the concept of “shadow resumes” and how the skills we develop as Family caregivers not only support our loved ones but also enhance our professional lives.
Paurvi shares how she built a strong care team as an only adult child, the resources that helped her navigate Caregiving, and the impactful work being done by the Rosalynn Carter Institute for Caregivers. Plus, we get a glimpse into what she would do if she had unlimited time for herself!
