Sponsor's own description

Dementia is a widespread incapacitating mental syndrome that carries a significant challenge for healthcare systems, persons with dementia, and their caregivers. The world health organization estimates that there is "more than 55 million persons live with dementia worldwide, and there are nearly 10 million new cases every year" In Egypt there are many studies had investigated caregiver burden with chronic ill elderly as physical or psychiatric diseases; however, studies focusing on caregiving Patients With Dementia (PWD), especially the psychological aspect, has been raised just few years ago. Some focused on psychiatric comorbidities of care givers, others correlated caregivers' quality of life with dementia staging. Other research groups designed educational programs and psychosocial interventions for training informal caregivers with significant psychological burden reduction at the end of the studies , also another group focused their study on the negative emotions expressed by caregiver towards PWD. Still there are many aspects of caregiving not explored considering the financial burden, lack of formal educational resources, stigma, cultural and religious values related to caregiving.
