YU CARE Faculty member Dr. Matthias Hoben has authored two research articles based on research data of caregivers of assisted living residents in Alberta. The first paper, assessed caregiver concerns about resident care and how these concerns were significantly higher if caregivers felt that the facilities did not involve and inform them well. The second paper assessed caregiver symptoms of depression and anxiety directly, as well as, factors associated with these symptoms.
