| Annotation | Family carers are a crucial resource in the care and support of people with dementia, but their motivations for caring can make the difference between success and failure. The author, a junior doctor at a London hospital, discusses his study of support workers' views on the way motivations can change and undermine carers' health. His research looked at spouse carers through the eyes of eight support workers from different occupations and with varying lengths of experience in care work. (RH). |
