Tailored Caregiver Therapy: Consumer Response to Intervention 

Authors: Shannon M. Fostera; Heidi S. Laytona; Sara H. Quallsa; Kelli J. Klebea

Abstract

Interventions must be tailored to meet the specific needs of a given individual, and caregivers represent a large population of individuals with diverse needs. A wide range of goal areas complicates assessment of multi-component interventions, and few tools are designed to capture the value of specific interventions to caregivers who are clients involved in these clinical interventions. Further, no studies have examined caregiver interventions from the consumer perspective. The current study includes an analysis of the goal areas identified by caregivers as relevant to their situations, including information about goals areas that are likely to co-occur and insight into the utility of specific interventions for particular goal areas.
Keywords: caregiving; outcome; assessment; intervention; consumer perspective
