Empower Caregivers is an evidence-based supportive approach

Enmpower Caregivers is based on a behavioral intervention called PISCES (Problem solving Intervention to Support Caregivers in Every Setting) which is a problem solving therapy intervention designed specifically for those who assume the demanding (and often unpaid) responsibility of taking care of a loved one or family with serious illness. PISCES was tested extensively in a series of clinical trials funded by the National Institutes of Health and was found to be very effective in reducing anxiety and improving quality of life for caregivers. It was developed by Drs Demiris, Parker Oliver and Washington who are researchers collaborating between two institutions (University of Pennsylvania and Washington University in St. Louis). This intervention is designed to allow caregivers to complete the modules at their discretion and take the time to reflect on challenging situations and possible solutions. Problem solving skills can be applied to a variety of situations and challenges. Caregivers can benefit from tools that empower them and allow them to brainstorm effectively while recognizing that their own health and well-being are important as well.
