Opinion | Caring for elders is hard. A new program could help. – The Washington Post
(Illustration by Adrián Astorgano / For The Washington Post)Caring for elders is hard. A new program could help.
Families need government to get out of the way, December 17, 2025
(Illustration by Adrián Astorgano / For The Washington Post)4 min, By Carrie Lukas, Carrie Lukas is president of Independent Women.
Inflation eased this past year, but not for everything: In-home elder care costs surged by nearly 10 percent, which is more than three times the overall inflation rate. Brace for continued double-digit price increases without policy change.
The best of The Post’s opinions and commentary, in your inbox every morning
Elder care costs are rising because demand is rising. By 2030, the number of people aged 65 and older will exceed 73 million; that’s a 30 percent increase in just one decade.
Yet instead of preparing for this reality, policymakers have constructed a system that discourages flexibility and rewards bureaucracy. The average cost of full-time, in-home assistance is nearly $80,000 a year. Residential facilities are even pricier: roughly $127,000 per year for a room in a private nursing home and around $70,000 for a room in assisted living. These costs are rising faster than wages, savings and public budgets.
Most older Americans don’t want to end up in residential facilities. A 2022 AARP survey found that 77 percent of adults aged 50 and older said they want to “age in place.” Unfortunately, government policy often stands in the way of seniors staying in their homes.

One culprit is the 2013 “Home Care Rule,” a Labor Department reinterpretation of the Fair Labor Standards Act that gutted the long-standing companionship exemption. Families who once hired live-in companions through agencies for light caregiving and daily living assistance suddenly faced overtime and wage rules. While some families employ live-in help as household employees or independent contractors, more than three quarters of home care aides are hired through agencies. While those rules may make sense for traditional employers, they don’t work for private households — instead, they make in-home elder care needlessly complex and prohibitively costly.
The Trump administration is working to rescind that rule, which is a crucial step in the right direction. It would allow families to negotiate caregiving arrangements that meet their needs without violating a tangle of labor laws.
But more can be done. Policymakers should look beyond regulatory rollback to innovation. They can start by making it easier for seniors to offer rent-free housing as partial compensation for caregiving services. Under the current interpretation of labor laws, room and board cannot be considered part of compensation if it’s offered as a condition of employment. Changing this provision to allow room and board to count as compensation would make hiring live-in assistance financially viable for middle-income seniors. This could be a win-win for caregivers and seniors alike. Millions of seniors live in homes with unused spare bedrooms and face a challenge with loneliness, which can lead to deteriorating mental and physical health. Caregivers, on the other hand, often struggle to afford housing.

I created a new program that I'll be running on Voxer in the new year. It's all about self-awareness and how to begin the process of getting there.
This is for folks that want to begin getting some control over things within themselves. I'm going to be showing you how to start making it a habit to question your thinking and take responsibility for yourself within yourself.
It's a week-long group chat environment. All the content will come through Voxer voice messages. I'll be including a printable journal for you as well!
Interested?
Sneak in way early for only $99 CAD.
Message me for a link!
Love to all.
