Mayo Clinic Study: Seeking Current and Former Family Caregivers

Posted by Nick Rethemeier @nrethemeier, Mar 9, 2023

I wanted to share with you all a new Mayo Clinic study that is open for recruitment. Connect2Caregivers is being done to develop a unique matching process for connecting current and former caregivers with one another for the purpose of peer-to-peer emotional support.

The study will help researchers determine whether caregivers of persons with dementia would find a technology-based caregiver matching program valuable. if you are interested in learning more, you can contact the study coordinator at connect2caregivers@mayo.edu or visit the attached flyer.
