Does your mom or dad have early stage dementia?

Hi everyone, I am a family caregiver for my grandmother with early stage dementia, and I am also a researcher trying to understand how families cope with dementia together. My hopes of my research is to inform support programs for family caregivers. Participating is a great way to help me with this effort, and earn a few extra dollars for your time and contribution. Feel free to learn more on my lab's website here: https://medicine.yale.edu/lab/monin/research/


There's one study for adult-children and parents with early stage dementia, and another study for spousal caregivers and their partners with dementia. Thank you, and sending well wishes to all.

Does it apply to former caregivers or those that have their loved ones in facilities?

We occasionally see requests for participation in surveys. The last one I saw AC staff checked the validity of the study. Did you check with admin on this study?

We run through a quick questionnaire assessing each of these, since caregivers can be in all kinds of variations!

Yales S. Would love to participate, but my diagnosed Senior was my brother. Are you limiting to spouse and to Mom and Dad? Could you repost your link now that AgingCare has OK'd your research? And THANKS for DOING your research.
