Group interventions to support family caregivers: a review and analysis

R W Toseland et al. Gerontologist. 1989 Aug.

A review of 29 evaluative studies published through 1987 reveals that no clear link has yet been established between participants' satisfaction and such other important outcomes for caregivers as improving coping skills, preventing psychological disturbances, increasing caregiver support systems, or improving caregivers' ability to care for themselves.
