Veterans Caregiving for Others: Caregiving as a Factor in the Health of America's Military Veterans.

Conclusion: Veterans who are caregiving for others (VCOs) despite being younger, have similar amounts of chronic health problems and more modifiable health factors (i.e., smoking) than veterans who are not caregiving for others (VNCOs). These characteristics have important implications for health management of veterans who are caregivers. PMID: 29901741 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
