Trialling an Online UK Dementia Awareness for Caregivers Course

All participants were given information on the study before providing informed consent. The participants were screened against eligibility criteria before being randomly allocated to either the treatment condition of attending the course, or the control condition of treatment as usual. Participants completed 5 outcome measures and a demographics questionnaire at baseline. The treatment group then attended a one-off half-day Dementia Awareness Course online, delivered by one trainee clinical psychologist. A month later, all participants completed the same 5 outcome measures and those who attended the course also attended a one-to-one half an hour online semi-structured interview.
