OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of the Family Caregiver Training Program (FCTP) for caregivers of people with dementia.
METHOD
A random assignment control group research design with a 3-mo follow-up was implemented.
RESULTS
Thirty-six family caregivers of people with dementia demonstrated an increase in activity of daily living (ADL) knowledge (p < .001) and maintenance of that knowledge 3 mo posttest. Caregiver confidence, regardless of group assignment, improved; however, it was not maintained. Burden, depression, and occupational performance and satisfaction remained unchanged for the intervention group; however, physical health as it pertained to quality of life improved 3 mo posttest (p < .001).
CONCLUSION
Findings demonstrate that the FCTP can effectively provide knowledge to family caregivers on how to assist people with dementia with ADLs. Even when standard care was provided, there was limited information on ADLs that family caregivers faced daily.
目的
本研究旨在检验家庭照顾者培训项目（FCTP）对痴呆症患者照顾者的有效性。
方法
采用随机分配对照组研究设计，并进行3个月的随访。
结果
36名痴呆症患者的家庭照顾者在日常生活活动（ADL）知识方面有所增加（p < .001），且在测试后3个月保持了该知识水平。无论分组如何，照顾者的信心都有所提高；然而，这种信心并未得以维持。干预组的负担、抑郁、职业表现和满意度保持不变；然而，与生活质量相关的身体健康在测试后3个月有所改善（p < .001）。
结论
研究结果表明，家庭照顾者培训项目能够有效地向家庭照顾者提供有关如何协助痴呆症患者进行日常生活活动的知识。即使提供了标准护理，家庭照顾者日常面临的有关日常生活活动的信息仍然有限。
