It explains how visit-associated logistics can intensify caregiver strain, burden, and burnout, while virtual visits may offer relief without yet having formal assessment evidence.

Family caregivers coordinating and navigating such visit-associated logistics must incorporate such challenges into their already strained schedules, potentially adding to caregiver burden and burnout. Virtual visits may reduce some of these challenges, but these benefits are difficult to catalog as a formal assessment of these visit-associated logistics has not been previously undertaken. This symposium will include five talks. The first will describe qualitative data from interviews with caregivers of people living with dementia (PLWD) about their experience bringing the PLWD to medical visits, including preparing for visits and visit-related time and travel. The second will describe a novel visit-associated logistics (VAL) framework that includes  \n6 domains: scheduling, preparing for the visit, visit-related time and travel, caregiver independence, routine disruption, and overall feelings & impressions. The third talk will share VAL results from a web-based national survey of >500 informal caregivers of older Veterans regarding the most recent in-person medical visit they helped their care recipient attend. The fourth talk will discuss the additional logistical challenges faced by caregivers","cbCaioNw0eYcXb4M","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaioNw0eYcXb4M","pdf",286640,"English","# LOGISTICAL CHALLENGES ASSOCIATED WITH CAREGIVER COORDINATION OF IN-PERSON MEDICAL APPOINTMENTS\n## Symposium overview and motivation\n## Qualitative caregiver interview findings\n## VAL framework across six domains\n## VAL results from national web-based survey\n## Additional caregiver logistical challenges","[{\"question\":\"Why do in-person medical visits create logistical challenges for older adults and caregivers?\",\"answer\":\"Bringing a medically complex older person to an in-person visit requires extensive planning and disrupts daily routines, forcing caregivers to adapt under already strained schedules.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the visit-associated logistics (VAL) framework?\",\"answer\":\"VAL is a novel framework that organizes visit-related issues into six domains: scheduling, preparing for the visit, visit-related time and travel, caregiver independence, routine disruption, and overall feelings \\u0026 impressions.\"},{\"question\":\"How will the symposium assess differences between in-person and video visits?\",\"answer\":\"One presentation summarizes VAL assessment results and caregivers’ qualitative reflections on merits of in-person versus video visits, while noting that formal cataloging of these logistics has not previously been undertaken.\"}]","LOGISTICAL CHALLENGES ASSOCIATED WITH CAREGIVER COORDINATION OF IN-PERSON MEDICAL APPOINTMENTS | PDF",1790625018]
