Description

CAR-T therapy requires planning for caregivers too. In this HealthTree video, we explain how long a 24/7 caregiver is typically needed, whether caregiving can be shared, how FMLA and other benefits may help with time off work, and when patients need to stay near the treatment center. You'll also hear about lodging assistance, transportation and driving restrictions, expenses to budget for, preparing responsibilities at home, and who can help coordinate it all.
