Stress, Psychological Clinical Trial
Official title:
Culturally Responsive Support Programming for Black Caregivers of Persons With Dementia
Black family caregivers of older adults with Alzheimer's disease and/or related dementias (ADRD), have an increased mortality risk related to pre-existing health conditions and stress. Targeted, culturally responsive, health interventions that help Black ADRD caregivers to effectively manage their own health and use community preferenced ways of coping, can improve caregivers' overall health, perceived ability to provide care for a person with ADRD (self-efficacy), and increases the likelihood that they will experience benefits from caregiving. This clinical trial pilot will test the feasibility of a community based intervention designed to improve health outcomes for Black family caregivers of persons with ADRD.

Primary | Caregiver Self-efficacy | Caregiver self-efficacy will be measured by the Revised Scale for Caregiving Self-Efficacy, which evaluates the caregivers' ability to obtain respite care, respond to disruptive behaviors, and control one's own upsetting thoughts about caregiving. Scoring is collected across three separate domains including ability to obtain respite, control upsetting thoughts, and responding to disruptive behaviors. Scoring measures self-reported from 0-100% | From start of study to 6 months following end of study enrollment up to 9 months | |
Secondary | Positive Aspects of Caregiving | Positive aspects of caregiving will be measured by the Positive Aspects of Caregiving Scale which provides a cumulative score that maxes at 45 point indicating a high agreement with identifying positive aspects of caregiving despite challenges | From start of study to 6 months following end of study enrollment up to 9 months |
