Topic: Risk, prevention and care in population studies
Three changes to the intervention content were determined from the different sources of data. The first change was to enhance content about dementia as a medical condition and not just a function of aging. Secondly, given the strong belief among Latinos of their duty to provide care to their elders, a second change was to strengthen the content on self-care. Finally, given the lower prevalence among Latinos of utilizing palliative care resources, we enriched the information about transitional care resources and their access. Initially and successfully targeting a specific minority, this study advances the field of knowledge translation by increasing accessibility of an evidence-based intervention with content that is likely to be relevant for caregivers more widely.

Key findings
- Three changes to the intervention content were determined from the different sources of data.
- The first change was to enhance content about dementia as a medical condition and not just a function of aging.
- Secondly, given the strong belief among Latinos of their duty to provide care to their elders, a second change was to strengthen the content on self-care.
- Finally, given the lower prevalence among Latinos of utilizing palliative care resources, we enriched the information about transitional care resources and their access.
- Initially and successfully targeting a specific minority, this study advances the field of knowledge translation by increasing accessibility of an evidence-based intervention with content that is likely to be relevant for caregivers more widely.
Why it matters
This participatory action research adapted an intervention for Latino family caregivers of people with dementia, adding content on dementia as a medical condition, self-care and transitional care resources. It concerns caregiver support and knowledge translation, not a treatment or cure for Alzheimer's disease.
