Lifestyle Program for Older Spouses Caring for Partners
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether a lifestyle intervention program can help older adults who are caregivers for spouses with memory problems. The program focuses on improving diet, exercise, cognitive activity, and social engagement to support both the caregiver's health and their ability to provide care.
