Description
McCurry, Penfold, and Karel told how a proven dementia caregiver program moved into daily use in twenty twenty-three. STAR-Caregivers trains family caregivers to add pleasant events and talk with more skill. It teaches behavior problem solving too. That eases life for the caregiver and for the person with dementia. A trial in two thousand five proved it works. Yet programs tested in research often fail to reach poorly served areas.
A symposium brought three such moves together. One gave the training online inside a large health system. A second reshaped the online form for Latino caregivers. A third took it to a rural Illinois area during the pandemic. It used smart speakers for telehealth sessions and links to services. Each speaker covered their group's needs, the snags hit in the move, and lessons on how well it works and how to keep it going.
