Jacqueline Marcell is an author, radio host, caregiver advocate, and speaker with a focus on Alzheimer’s awareness and elder care. Her experiences as the caregiver for her father and mother, both of whom suffered from undiagnosed Alzheimer's, alongside her own battle with breast cancer, have provided her with profound insights into the complexities of elder care and health monitoring.
Jacqueline wrote the critically acclaimed book "Elder Rage, or Take My Father... Please! How to Survive Caring for Aging Parents," which is a detailed account of her struggles managing the care of her aging parents. This book was not only chosen as a Book-of-the-Month Club selection—a notable first for a caregiving book—but has also earned over 350 5-Star reviews on Amazon and received numerous endorsements from respected figures and institutions, including Hugh Downs, Regis Philbin, and Harvard Medical School. The book's significance is further highlighted by its use in university courses for geriatric assessment and management, and it is currently being considered for a film adaptation.
In addition to her writing, Jacqueline hosts the radio program "Coping With Caregiving," where she has interviewed over 1,500 guests on a range of topics from disease and dementia to stress management and coping strategies over nine years. Her work in media has been recognized with a Media Award from the National Adult Day Services Association.
Jacqueline has delivered presentations at numerous prestigious venues including the California Governor's Conference, the National Security Agency, and the Florida House of Representatives. She addresses vital topics such as eldercare, health, and motivational themes, often incorporating her personal experiences to enhance her talks. Her presentations have garnered unprecedented attendance, demonstrating her ability to connect with both professional and family audiences. Furthermore, Jacqueline was honored with the "Advocate of the Year" award by the National Association of Women Business Owners at their Remarkable Women Awards.
Jacqueline Marcell's media presence is robust with appearances on platforms such as TODAY, CNN, and in a PBS documentary on Alzheimer's. She has also been featured in numerous publications including The Los Angeles Times, Modern Healthcare Magazine, and Woman's Day. Through her advocacy, speaking engagements, and literary contributions, Jacqueline continues to make significant impacts in the realms of caregiving and eldercare.
