Study Details

Brief summary:

The goal of the study is to examine the effect of outreach from IN-HOME-trained CHWs on changes in male informal caregiver knowledge/skills, positive attitudes, self-efficacy, and intentions about caregiving topics. The study will also assess the extent to which exposure to IN-HOME improves male caregivers' general, physical, and mental health and reduces interference with daily tasks due to health-related issues and satisfaction with the program and associated app.
