#KamalaHarris announced a plan today to expand Medicare's home health care coverage for older Americans in an effort to support the "sandwich generation" caring for both kids and aging parents.

My grandmother stayed in her accustomed home almost to the end of her life. Familiar surroundings helped her stay oriented and happy even after her memory started to decline.
