Implementation behavior of communities regarding relatives caring for people with dementia : A quantitative study among German communities.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Actors from the community (CAs) play a fundamental role in the support of caring relatives (CRs) of people with dementia (PWD). As their support is not sufficient, the implementation of support services needs to be optimized; however, little is known about the factors associated with the implementation behavior of CAs.

Aim

This study aimed to investigate the association of person-related factors with the implementation behavior of CAs.

Methods

In a cross-sectional study, 205 CAs from 16 German communities were surveyed with the community implementation behaviour questionnaire (CIBQ), which is based on the theoretical domains framework. Logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify person-related factors associated with the implementation behavior
