New study to examine the role of extended family caregivers of people with dementia
Karen Roberto and Tina Savla, both core faculty members of Virginia Tech s Center for Gerontology, are leading a five-year, $2.14 million study that will examine the role of extended family caregivers and their service use, needs, and challenges.
The National Institute on Aging part of the National Institutes of Health awarded the grant.
While most of the caregiving literature to date has focused on close kin, such as adult children and spouses, this new study will turn the spotlight on other family caregivers, such as grandchildren, siblings, nieces and nephews, and step-kin.
