Understanding the aide/family caregiver relationship.
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.
