Summary

This study compares two support programs for family and friends caring for Veterans with dementia after a hospital stay. One program, Hospital GamePlan4Care, provides a handbook, online training, and phone coaching tailored to the caregiver's needs. The other offers general education and resources. The goal is to see which program better reduces caregiver burden and improves well-being. About 50 caregivers from the Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center in Houston will participate for at least three months.
