This research aims to increase our understanding of dysphagia-related caregiver burden and inform the development of a comprehensive dysphagia intervention, one that promotes the health and quality of life of both the caregiver and the person with dementia.
Aim 1. Quantify dysphagia's contribution to burden among family caregivers of persons with dementia across the disease trajectory to identify when may be best to intervene.
Aim 2. Characterize the moderating effects of caregiver readiness and support on dysphagia-related burden and care recipient quality of life to identify what are the most appropriate intervention targets.
