Mobile Media Intervention for Family Caregivers of Veterans With Dementia

VA Office of Research and Development·interventional·Posted Jan 31, 2018·Updated Jul 15, 2019

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Education and Skill Building Rehabilitation-mobile (ESBR-m) and Usual Care (UC) for Dementia. Completed, enrolled 16 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

To address the high burden of caring for a Veteran with dementia, the investigators propose to study the effect of a low-cost, rehabilitative intervention for family caregivers of Veterans with dementia. The investigators' novel approach will use mobile media technology that can reach caregivers in rural areas who do not have easy access to major VA medical centers. If this rehabilitative intervention proves successful, it may represent an approach to Veteran and family-centered dementia care that can be used throughout VA with low staff, resource, and cost burdens.
