Did the COVID-19 pandemic change the care situation of older adults?
The study examined changes in giving and receiving care by community-dwelling older adults during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 compared to a period about two years before. Using data collected in two waves by the Longitudinal Aging Study Amsterdam (N = 1013), we study how many and which older adults report a change in care use and provision and how these changes impact on psychological well-being. The results show that only for a small part of the sample changes occurred. The large majority provides no care (73%) or uses no care (62%) in both waves. 7% stayed a care provider during the pandemic, where 15% quitted care provision and 5% started care provision. 17% remained a care user, where 15% did not receive care anymore and 6% started to use care. The informal carers mainly consisted of women and younger elderly in good health and the care recipients were mainly women and older elderly in poorer health. Using care had a negative impact on psychological well-being, but providing care was not related to wellbeing during the pandemic. The results imply that the pandemic and the measures taken affected the care situation of only a small part of the older adults.
