TL;DR: Quality of life of caregivers could be improved even with burden in their lives and that the overwhelming focus in caregiving research on burden should be supplemented with an emphasis on quality of life.

TL;DR: Three domains of individualized care (knowing the person/resident, resident autonomy and choice, communication) were chosen as appropriate for the development of multi-item paper-and-pencil staff completion scales and it is suggested that these domains lend themselves to brief multi- item measures and that not all conceptual domains ofindividualized care co-occur in practice.

TL;DR: In this paper, the relationship between work interferences and caregiver burden, well-being, and self-esteem within a modified stress process model was examined, and the authors found that subjective assessment of work interference may play a more important role than does employment status.

TL;DR: In this article, the meaning of respite was determined from the perspective of caregivers, and six distinct themes emerged from the qualitative and more structured interviews: stolen moments, relief, physical/mental stimulus, connections, minimizing its importance, and angst-free care receivers.

TL;DR: Study results support psychometric properties of measures of WEng, PE, and OCB-O for HCAs, and correlated with worker outcomes (job satisfaction, turnover intention), demonstrating predictive validity.
