Caring Response for Dementia Caregivers description

Caring Response is designed to help caregivers of someone with Alzheimer's Disease and related dementia to understand and deal with the difficult behaviors of a person with dementia, reduce stress, and improve quality of life.

The Caring Response curriculum is based on research by Photozig, Inc. and Stanford University, with the incorporation of simple practices based on Virtual Patient strategies (role-playing cases of people with dementia and caregivers).

We hope that our curriculum will teach skills and help families struggling with dementia caregiving, as it has helped many caregivers in our past research studies.

The Caring Project is conducting a research study to develop new coping resources for caregivers of individuals with Alzheimer’s Disease and related dementia.

• Are you a caregiver of an individual with dementia?
• Would you like to learn how to deal with difficult caregiving situations?

This is a self-paced program (no face-to-face meetings, appointments, etc), and participants can live anywhere in the US. If this program is not helpful to you, please forward this information to someone who can benefit from this free service.

The goals of our project are: (1) to evaluate materials related to dementia and how to cope with difficult situations; (2) to study dissemination of information about dementia caregiving; and (3) to develop new resources to enhance the quality of life.
