Assessing The Feasibility Of A Virtual Delivery Of The Savvy Caregiver Program For Jamaican Caregivers Of Persons Living With Dementia
Virtual delivery of SCP moderately reduced perceived stress among Jamaican caregivers, demonstrating its feasibility and potential as a valuable intervention in LMIC settings. However, the lack of significant improvements in other caregiver outcomes highlights the need for culturally tailored interventions to address the broader needs of Jamaican caregivers. Further research with larger samples and longer follow-up periods is warranted to examine long-term benefits and enhancements of SCP in Jamaica and similar settings.
