Abstract:

Abstract In long-term care, there has been an ongoing shift focused on person-centered care, positioning the care recipient at the core of good quality of care. This has resulted in more emphasis on care recipients’ preferences and experiences with the care they receive. In the Netherlands, Germany and the United States the need to focus on and assess quality from the care recipient’s perspective has emerged. This symposium presents four different approaches to quality of care from the care recipient’s perspective. The first speaker will focus on a narrative approach to assess experienced qual

Abstract Research on advance care planning (ACP) has highlighted major contributors to the completion of ACP documents. One of such contributors is knowledge about ACP, such as an advance directive or living will (LW). This study aims to 1) understand the initial exposure to ACP knowledge among informal caregivers’ of chronically or seriously ill older adults and to 2) explore an association between caregivers’ advance care planning and that of their care-recipients. Forty-four primary caregivers of cognitively impaired older adults were recruited at various community settings. A mixed-method

In the current paper I will review recent studies on prosocial behavior in dogs and I will compare them to studies with primates.

Individuals’ perceptions of an older adult’s social role relate to their attitudes toward older adults as a group (Hummert, 1999; Kite & Wagner, 2002).

Abstract:

Abstract Caregiving is often considered stressful, even more so if the care recipient has been diagnosed with dementia. The current study examines the rate of cognitive decline of spousal caregivers of persons with dementia (CG-D) when compared to spousal caregivers of persons without dementia (CG) before and after the death of the care recipient. Health and Retirement Study (HRS) data from 1998-2016 were used to examine cognitive trajectories of CG-D (n=364) and CG (n=1,649) before and after the care recipient death. Cognition was measured through the HRS’s shortened Telephone Interview of Co

Objectives:The purpose of this study is to compare the approaches used for valuing family caregiver and care recipient time devoted to providing and receiving care.Methods:Valuation approaches were operationalized within a cohort of cystic fibrosis care recipients (n= 110). Base-case analyses, grounded in human capital theory, applied earnings estimates to caregiving time to impute the market value of time lost from labor. Unpaid labor and leisure time was valued with a replacement cost (homemaker's wage rate). Total time costs were computed and sensitivity analyses were conducted to describe

Abstract:

Abstract Over 34 million informal caregivers provide care to an adult aged 50 or older with over 15 million caregivers caring for a person with dementia. People often become caregivers unexpectedly. For most caregivers little training is available, and most skills are learned “on the job”. The objective of this study is to determine the training needs of caregivers. An anonymous survey was conducted at two caregiver conferences. Caregivers were asked to name up to 5 training needs. For this abstract we report the percent of responses by caregivers. Seventy-nine caregivers completed the survey.

Abstract:

While studies have documented the influence of caregiver and care recipient factors on caregiver health, it is important to address the potential impact of neighborhood contexts. This study estimated the cross-sectional associations between neighborhood characteristics and mental health among caregivers cohabiting with Alzheimer’s disease care recipients that were experiencing severe or non-severe neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPSs) (e.g., aggression/anxiety). We obtained data collected in 2010 on caregivers and care recipients (n = 212) from a subset of South Carolina’s Alzheimer’s Disease Regis

Abstract Changes in informal care provision during the first COVID-19 lockdown in 2020 in the Netherlands This study investigates to what extent the intensity of informal care provision has changed during the first lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic in the spring of 2020 in the Netherlands, whether these changes differed by the living situation of the care recipient, and whether these changes were associated with changes in indicators for ‘being able to’, ‘have to’ and ‘want to’ provide care (determinants of the Informal Care Model). We collected data in July 2020 among informal caregivers

Abstract:

Caregivers of persons with multiple sclerosis (MS) engage in many caregiving tasks and spend considerable time on these activities with such caregiving being of immense social and economic value. However, the lack of empirically derived psychometrically sound instruments for measuring caregiving tasks has hampered progress in this field. This study aimed 1) to examine the dimensional and psychometric structure of the Caregiving Tasks in MS Scale (CTiMSS), and 2) to examine caregiver and care recipient correlates of caregiving tasks. Participants were 232 caregivers of persons with MS and their

Adherence facilitation was measured among 240 caregivers on a 45-item instrument constructed for this research. The facilitation score was regressed on caregivers' role-specific self-concept (e.g., caregiver competence), informal social network support, utilization of the informal network as a lay referral system, formal network support, and reported health status of the care recipient.
