Summary

This study tests a stepped-care model to support relatives of people with acquired brain injury or malignant brain tumor. The model offers basic support to all, with extra help for those who need it, based on screening. Researchers will measure changes in caregiver burden and well-being in 160 relatives, comparing the new approach to usual care.
