  • Title: Sources of stress among families caring for relatives with Alzheimer's disease.
    Author: Given CW, Collins CE, Given BA.
    Journal: Nurs Clin North Am; 1988 Mar; 23(1):69-82. PubMed ID: 3279406.
    Abstract:
    We have described the different sources of stress and burden that are imposed by caring for a family member with AD. We have provided an approach to assessing each of these possible sources of stress and burden and have indicated how such assessments must take a family-based approach and consider the broader social roles and family dynamics that may color the way in which family members view and carry out their caregiving roles.
