PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 2 months post-hospital discharge

Population: Data are from caregivers only, hence not the full sample.

22-item measure of caregiver self-reported burden. Response options for each item range from 0-4, and total scores range from 0-88, with higher scores indicating greater self-reported burden. Only total scores are reported here.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 2 months post-hospital discharge

Population: This is patient-report only at post-test, hence it does not use the full sample.

4-item measure of the patient's report of the quality of care they receive from their caregiver. Response options for each item range from 1-4, and total scores range from 4-16, with higher scores indicating a higher quality of informal care received. Only Provide subscale scores of the Exemplary Care Scale are reported here.
