Description
Rafael Cardoso-Arias and Maggie Ramirez published this study in 2024. It asks why Latino caregivers of people with dementia use support services so little. The team interviewed thirty caregivers and fourteen service providers in Washington State. Transcripts were coded with a set frame for how care adapts across cultures. The authors then dug into the parts about getting into services at all.
Three barriers stood out. First, providers often did not share the caregivers' language or background. Second, health systems linked poorly with community groups that could help. Third, digital tools shut some families out. The authors say care built for the majority can miss Latino families' needs. They urge targeted fixes in language access, coordination, and tech design.
