Family caregivers' perceptions and experiences of participating in the learning skills together intervention to build self-efficacy for providing complex care.

The study reports caregivers' perceptions after the program, not measured change in self-efficacy. Only caregivers who completed the trial and agreed to interview were included, so they may have already felt confident enough to seek more learning. Online delivery limited participants to caregivers with technology access and skills, and it may have changed how complex care tasks could be practiced. The intervention combined many modules and was delivered by an interprofessional team, so the contribution of any single profession or component cannot be separated. The sample was small and focused on mid-stage dementia, so findings may not apply to other dementia stages or caregiving contexts.

The authors declared no potential conflicts of interest and no declarations.

Do not read the caregivers' reported confidence as proof that the intervention improves self-efficacy. It describes perceptions after a multi-component interprofessional program, not measured change, and the sample was small and selected.
