Background and Objectives: People with dementia are critically dependent on their carers when accessing and utilizing health care. To inform health care development and delivery, we aimed to explore carers' perceptions of their role in caring for a family member with dementia and to identify carers' skills and attributes and factors impacting on care.; Research Design and Methods: We used semistructured interviews to collect data from 25 carers supporting older adults with dementia.
