Affect Clinical Trial
Official title:
Development & Pilot Randomized Control Trial (RCT) of an Online Peer Support Program for Family Caregivers of Ventilator-Assisted Individuals Living in the Community
Ventilator assisted individuals (VAIs) living at home are frail and generally cannot perform most daily activities. Although these individuals prefer to live at home, the family members who care for them often experience stress and poor health. Peer support can mitigate health declines by decreasing caregivers' isolation/stress and increasing their sense of control. However, no peer support programs are designed to meet these caregivers' complex and unique needs. Online support delivery is especially beneficial for caregivers given the geographic and time limitations they face. The proposed research aims to develop and conduct an RCT of online peer support program for VAI caregivers. A group of caregivers will be trained to act as peer mentors. This training program will be evaluated for its impact on caregivers' mentoring abilities. At the end of the 12-week program, caregiving participants will be asked about the online delivery of the program, how helpful/satisfactory it was, and if it affected their health and well-being. The health outcomes of the control and intervention group will be compared. This peer support program can improve the well-being of caregivers and allow them to better care for their family members.
