Caregiver support must reflect changing realities
The Straits Times
|June 11, 2026
As Singapore becomes a super-aged society in 2026, more attention must be paid to those providing care.
While the average caregiver is around 62 years old, it was reported that the proportion of informal caregivers aged 67 and above increased between 2019 and 2024 (Seniors caring for seniors: What caregiving looks like in a super-aged society, May 20).
Demographic shifts, including later parenthood and smaller families, mean more young adults are caring for their parents while studying or starting their careers.
