There are various approaches to increase the knowledge on mental health and wellbeing of these caregivers. Findings from research in low-income and middle-income countries show a brief educational intervention reduced distress for family caregivers who take care of people with dementia. Investigation into whether education would have a similar effect for stay-in-hospital caregivers would be worthwhile. Use of Balint groups, in which groups of clinicians meet and discuss cases to deal with their negative feelings such as anger and frustration, could be another approach.
