Description
This dissertation studied the feasibility and acceptability of Through Alzheimer's Eyes, an easy-to-access psychoeducational and skill-building intervention that incorporates information and communication technologies (ICT) that can help to prepare caregivers of persons with Alzheimer’s and related dementias to improve communication skills and manage behavioral issues. Using a Modular Dissertation format, the dissertation includes three manuscripts covering the intervention underpinnings, results, and environmental impact. The first manuscript describes the rationale, protocol, and design of the intervention Through Alzheimer's Eyes. The second manuscript explores the feasibility and acceptability of study results from a mixed-methods approach. The third manuscript offers the impact of a virtual intervention on carbon emissions and potential savings for caregivers of people with dementia. Together, the three manuscripts describe the intervention design, results, and future directions for research and practice.
