Caregiver Outcomes of Alzheimer's Disease Screening
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Alzheimer Disease
In brief
This study will measure the risks and benefits of early screening of Alzheimer's disease. Early diagnosis through screening may enhance the family member's transition to a family caregiver and reduce caregiver burden by providing an opportunity for the family member to learn about the syndrome, receive interventions, and to prepare for their new care giving role.
