Description

Summary

The caregivers of persons with dementia face significant emotional, physical, and financial challenges, particularly among under-resourced communities like Korean Americans, who encounter unique obstacles, including language barriers and limited culturally tailored resources. In this pilot study, the investigators propose the Brain Health Project, which focuses on increasing knowledge of Alzheimer's disease and related dementia and enhancing caregiving skills among Korean American dementia caregivers.
