This expansion allows the VHA to provide a number of clinical and support services, training, and education to families and caregivers of patients with service connected and non-service connected injuries or conditions. The VHA has responded by initiating a set of support services, including counseling, a caregiver support line, and website, to support families and caregivers of Veterans.^With this new authorization, there is now the potential to adopt or integrate additional family-involved interventions to improve Veterans' outcomes.^This review's aim was to evaluate which interventions are efficacious in affecting patient outcomes for memory-related disorders or cancer.^Family and caregiver interventions, especially interventions targeted to caregivers caring for someone with a physical health condition, typically aim to develop caregiver skills to manage their caregiving tasks and to reduce caregiver burden. An often implicit assumption in these interventions is that by reducing caregiver burden and improving caregiver skills, the care recipient will also benefit. Reflecting this, the majority of family-focused intervention studies and reviews of these studies have concentrated only on family or caregiver outcomes.^We conducted a systematic review of interventions that explicitly tested this assumption.^We evaluated the published evidence assessing whether family involved interventions improve patient outcomes (i.e., efficacy) and whether specific family involved interventions are better than alternative ones (i.e., specificity or comparative effectiveness).^We specifically examined the effects of family-involved interventions on the patients, not on the family members. We assessed if there is evidence that interventions targeted at family members only or both family members and adult care recipients improve the patients' outcomes. We limited our focus to family members caring for those with cancer and memory-related conditions since the majority of studies examine one of these two conditions. This project was nominated by Sonja Batten, PhD, Office of Mental Health Services. The key questions and scope were refined with input from a technical expert panel.Evidence-based synthesis program (Series)Effectiveness of family and caregiver interventions on patient outcomes among adults with cancer or memory-related disorders CaregiversUnited StatesHome nursingMemory disordersUnited StatesfastTechnical reports.lcgftCaregiversHome nursing.Memory disorders.362.0425Griffin Joan1354245Quality Enhancement Research Initiative (U.S.)Minneapolis VA Health Care System (U.S.).VA Evidence Synthesis Program.United States.Department of Veterans Affairs.Health Services Research and Development Service,Evidence-based Synthesis Program (U.S.)NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910717366703321Effectiveness of family and caregiver interventions on patient outcomes among adults with cancer or memory-related disorders3314967UNINA06535nam 22006855 450 991096200350332120250806181158.09781461209270146120927710.1007/978-1-4612-0927-0(CKB)3400000000089325(SSID)ssj0000808475(PQKBManifestationID)11429842(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000808475(PQKBWorkID)10778289(PQKB)11609920(DE-He213)978-1-4612-0927-0(MiAaPQ)EBC3074007(PPN)237993708(EXLCZ)99340000000008932520121227d1994 u| 0engurnn#008mamaatxtccrSheaves in Geometry and Logic A First Introduction to Topos Theory /by Saunders MacLane, Ieke Moerdijk1st ed. 1994.New York, NY :Springer New York :Imprint: Springer,1994.1 online resource (XII, 630 p.)Universitext,2191-6675Bibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph9780387977102 0387977104 Includes bibliographical references and indexes.Prologue -- Categorial Preliminaries -- I.

His clear insights have inspired many mathematicians, including both of us. In January 1989, when the first draft of our book had been completed, we heard the sad news of his untimely death. This has cast a shadow on our subsequent work. Our views of topos theory, as presented here, have been shaped by continued study, by conferences, and by many personal contacts with friends and colleagues-including especially O. Bruno, P. Freyd, J.M.E. Hyland, P.T. Johnstone, A. Joyal, A. Kock, F.W. Lawvere, G.E. Reyes, R Solovay, R Swan, RW. Thomason, M. Tierney, and G.C. Wraith. Our presentation combines ideas and results from these people and from many others, but we have not endeavored to specify the various original sources. Moreover, a number of people have assisted in our work by pro­ viding helpful comments on portions of the manuscript. In this respect, we extend our hearty thanks in particular to P. Corazza, K. Edwards, J. Greenlees, G. Janelidze, G. Lewis, and S. Schanuel.Universitext,2191-6675GeometryK-theoryLogic, Symbolic and mathematicalGeometryK-TheoryMathematical Logic and FoundationsGeometry.K-theory.Logic, Symbolic and mathematical.Geometry.K-Theory.Mathematical Logic and Foundations.512/.55Mac Lane Saunders1909-2005authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut26298Moerdijk Iekeauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910962003503321Sheaves in Geometry and Logic382817UNINA
