Summary

This study tests a new program called INSPIRE, designed to support informal caregivers (like family or friends) of older adults with rheumatoid arthritis and frailty. The program involves three sessions with a healthcare professional over 12 weeks, focusing on emotional support, practical help, and navigating services. The study will enroll 25 caregivers to see if the program is feasible and acceptable in routine care.
