Patient and caregiver goals for dementia care

Purpose: Most health outcome measures for chronic diseases do not incorporate specific health goals of patients and caregivers.

Methods: We conducted 5 focus groups with 43 participants (7 with early-stage dementia and 36 caregivers); 15 participants were Spanish-speaking.
