long job gap due to being a caretaker

I am frustrated and getting very depressed because I have a 5 year gap between work. I have been a caretaker for an ill family member. It seems that nobody wants to hire me due to this :( I have many ample years of experience in customer service/front office in the healthcare field. I have not lost a beat in what I can do. I am seeking work in the Sacramento California area. If you are a hiring manager or have any leads please keep me in mind please please. My resume is posted online with Career Builder and Zip recruiter. Warm regards. JoAnn Bagley

Jo Ann, do you include that info on your resume/applications? I think being a caregiver for a family member is really good experience
