Supporting Carers: Study Protocol of a Meta-Review of Psychosocial Interventions for Carers of People With Cancer

Supporting Carers: Study Protocol of a Meta-Review of Psychosocial Interventions for Carers of People With Cancer

While there appears to be a large volume of literature reporting on studies of psychosocial interventions for carers of patients with cancer, this body of work is complex and fragmented, and it is challenging to draw clear conclusions about the evidence for specific types of programs or carer groups. The result is that carers remain undersupported, with limited evidence of the effective interventional approaches.

If I were a male carer [...] I might feel slightly alienated [...]. So, the fact that they are not represented is not particularly ideal. Concern about complex wording was a common theme in caregivers’ and staffs’ reactions to Pi B and redesign recommendations.

Online Support Groups for Family Caregivers: Scoping Review

Online Support Groups for Family Caregivers: Scoping Review

This was evident by participants making a distinction between themselves as a carer and as a person, using the space to state their own needs and as a safe space where they could express things that they would not say to family members for fear of negative reactions. The OSGs provided changes in the identity work of family caregivers in 2 key areas: (1) disrupted family relationships or significant other relationships signifying “a new us” [53] and (2) normalization of atypical patterns of behavior [52].

Use of an Online Forum for Relatives of People With Psychosis and Bipolar Disorder: Mixed Methods Study

Both the REACT intervention and access to a digital resource directory were associated with significant increases in carer well-being and reduction in distress; however, there was no difference between the 2 trial arms in these outcomes at either 12 or 24 weeks of follow-up. Of the 800 participants in the REACT trial, 399 (49.8%) were in the active intervention arm, with access to a peer-supported moderated forum. Here, we report on their patterns of REACT forum use during the trial.
