This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Aging (CFDA 93.866 - Aging Research) to the Trustees of Indiana University provides $356,974 to culturally adapt a mobile caregiving intervention called Brain CareNotes for Hispanic dementia caregivers. The proposed project aims to 1) conduct a needs assessment among Hispanic dementia caregivers to understand cultural factors impacting caregiver burden and behavioral/psychological symptoms of dementia, and 2) use participatory co-design methods to adapt the existing Brain CareNotes intervention to be more culturally relevant for this population. Once the adaptations are complete, a pilot study will be conducted to ensure the future randomized controlled trial will be adequately powered to detect reductions in caregiver burden and dementia symptoms among Hispanic patients. The award period is from September 3, 2024 to June 30, 2029.
