Survey finds almost half of 'lonely and forgotten' family carers have no PPE

Research carried out by Family Carers Ireland reveals that almost half of family carers have no access to PPE and more than 80% are worried about the person they are caring for catching Covid-19.

The online survey of 1,307 family carers was done in April and May and it shows that the pandemic has had a major impact on the lives of the country’s 355,000 family carers.
