๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

The purpose of this study is to develop and test CarePair, a mobile application-based needs assessment and service referral platform for family caregivers of persons with dementia designed to alleviate stress and promote psychosocial well being. The main aims of this study are: * To evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of the CarePair mobile application. * To explore the potential for CarePair to reduce feelings of depression and burden, and improve caregivers' feelings of self-efficacy.
