Variations in perceived social support among family caregivers from diverse cultural backgrounds

Our study highlights similarities and differences amongst correlates of perceived social support across two culturally distinct groups of Australian family caregivers, which include demographic, care-related and health-related factors, including mental health. Future research using longitudinal mixed methods approaches would be valuable in better understanding trajectories of care associated with personal, cultural, and structural factors and how its influences perceptions of social support across the diversity of family caregivers.
