Every question should be answered by the caregiver according to a likert scale (0=Never,1=Rarely,2=Sometimes,3=Quite Frequently,4=Nearly Always) and a total of 96 points. 36 point is a limit to a professional help for caregiver and the higher the points get there is more burden for caregiver.	15 days
