About

The goal of this pilot study is to improve the STAR-Caregivers Virtual Training & Follow-up (STAR-VTF) intervention for Latino caregivers of people living with dementia. The main objectives are to: (1) culturally adapt STAR-VTF online training modules, (2) pilot test Latino caregivers' responses to the adapted online training modules, and (3) develop an online survey to collect caregiver outcomes in a future study. Participants will receive the STAR-VTF intervention and asked to complete online surveys and participate in an exit interview to provide feedback on their experience.

Full description

The objectives of this study are to: (1) culturally and linguistically adapt the STAR-Caregivers Virtual Training & Follow-up (STAR-VTF) online training modules for Latino caregivers of people living with dementia (PLWD), (2) pilot test Latino caregivers' responses to the adapted online training modules, and (3) develop a REDCap survey to pragmatically collect caregiver outcomes in a future study.

The study will use a single-arm pilot trial design with Latino caregivers of PLWD. The investigators will assess self-reported outcomes at baseline and 6-8 weeks post-enrollment using a REDCap survey. Outcome measures will include the Revised Memory and Problem Behavior Checklist and Preparedness for Caregiving Scale. In addition, the investigators will assess caregivers' perceived usability of the online training modules and will conduct qualitative interviews 6-8 weeks post-enrollment. The interviews will assess caregiver satisfaction with and acceptability of the adapted online training modules.

The investigators expect to enroll up to 20 participants. The primary objective of this study is to pilot test the adapted online training modules. Therefore, it is not powered to detect an effect of the intervention.
