77 Behind the Scenes: the Burden Experienced by Informal Carers of People with Dementia

ConclusionThis preliminary analysis is the first study of its kind to be carried out in Ireland. It sheds light on potential predictors and risk factors for carer burden and shows need for future research to be carried out in this area. Such research would help to clarify interventions which could minimise the prevalence of the burden experienced by informal caregivers.
