ClinConnect Summary
The Family Caregiver Online Survey is a research study that aims to understand the challenges faced by family caregivers who help loved ones with dementia, particularly when it comes to swallowing difficulties, known as dysphagia. If you are a caregiver for a family member with any type of dementia, have been providing care for at least two months, and live with the person you are caring for, you might be eligible to participate. The survey will take about 30 minutes to complete and is designed for caregivers aged 18 and older living in the U.S.
Participants can expect to answer questions about their caregiving experiences and the specific needs they encounter when helping their loved ones manage swallowing issues. This study is currently recruiting participants, and your insights can help improve support for family caregivers like you. Remember, this is an opportunity to share your experiences and contribute to important research without any financial compensation for your caregiving role.
