Caregiver Appraisals of Alzheimer?s Disease or Related Dementias

Xiuyun Liu

Introduction: Little is known about how family caregivers who witness unanticipated and spontaneous communication among people in late stages of Alzheimer’s complaint and related dementias (ADRD) estimate these occurrences of simplicity (EL).

Methods: In an electronic, cross-sectional survey for former and current caregivers who share in Us Against Alzheimer’s-LIST , participants who reported witnessing an EL were asked how positive and stressful ELs were, if they made or changed opinions grounded on an EL, and what coffers they sought out to explain ELs.

Discussion: These exploratory data suggest caregiver responses to EL vary. Caregivers may change or postpone care opinions due to EL, and many coffers exist to address caregiver queries about EL.
