title: Understanding the aide/family caregiver relationship.
abstract: Family caregivers recognize the need for responsible, dependable home care services. When the services of the home care agency are required, it is often the aide who delivers the day-to-day care, whereas the home care nurse is responsible for providing coordination and supervision. The findings of this study provide the nurse with a better understanding of the relationship between home care aides and family caregivers.
