The population of older persons in Nigeria is on the rise, with an estimated 9.4 million people over 60 years old in 2020. As traditional support structures for older individuals erode due to modernization and urbanization, the challenge of caring for them is becoming more pressing. The Training Manual for Informal Caregivers of Older Persons, developed as part of the CAReS project, aims to address this challenge by providing essential training on topics like understanding the ageing process, practical assistance, health management, financial literacy, and caregiver self-care. This timely intervention by Dr. Eniola Cadmus seeks to enhance family care and support for older persons in Nigeria.
