Hi Dr. Maddox,

What implications or crossover might your research have with general caregiver burnout?

For example, could your intervention also be utilized to help spouses who also act as caregivers to their loved one to avoid burnout?

Fab question. I think probably a lot of the same mechanisms are at work, but the context is quite different so would affect how an intervention could be delivered and what would feel acceptable. It’s a huge issue in caregiving in general though. Lots of work done with foster carers too.
