Summary

The purpose of this research study is to culturally adapt a personalized intervention for Hispanic/Latino caring for a loved one with significant memory problems. The intervention will be designed to help Hispanics/Latinos caring for a loved one with significant memory problems in their own unique context to: 1.) understand the importance of social connections for their own health and well-being, 2.) learn to become aware of their own personal barriers to social connections, and 3.) increase their knowledge of local resources for promoting social connections.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Connect for Caregivers

The STAR Center developed Connect for Caregivers to help improve connectedness among older caregivers of individuals with Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias (ADRD). Connect for Caregivers includes three components: (1) psychoeducational materials on the importance of connectedness for health and well-being; (2) a card sort-based 'discussion prioritization tool' that systematizes and routinizes the process of identifying and prioritizing barriers to connectedness; (3) personalized resources to address the identified barriers/targets. We will tailor Connect for Caregivers for Hispanic/Latino and Spanish-speaking caregivers guided by the Selective and Directed Treatment Adaptation Framework. The intervention is given once during the study.
