NCT ID NCT07290387
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing a culturally adapted online education program called Tele-Savvy for Latino caregivers of people with Alzheimer's or related dementias. The program includes weekly video group sessions and short instructional videos over seven weeks. Researchers want to see if it helps caregivers feel more confident and less stressed. The trial involves 64 Spanish-speaking Latino caregivers.
