ETSU We Care Caregiver Study

Attention:
ETSU Employees and Students Assisting Adults Age 50 or Older

If you are an ETSU employee or student and you provide any level of support for an adult 50 years or older – please read on.

 

A team of researchers from ETSU is conducting the We Care Caregiver Study to learn more about your caregiving experience. If you choose to be in the study, you will complete two surveys. Each survey will take about 15 minutes to complete. We will collect your email address so that we can send you the second survey in about eight weeks. Your email will only be used for this research study and will not be shared outside the research team. 

Completing each survey will give you an opportunity to be entered into a drawing for one of twenty giftbags containing ETSU swag valued at $20.

Definition of a Caregiver: An individual who provides unpaid care to a relative, friend, or neighbor 50 years of age or older to help them take care of themselves. This may include helping with personal needs, healthcare, or household chores. It might be managing a person's finances, arranging for outside services, assisting with medical needs, or visiting regularly to see how they are doing. This adult need not live with you.

Eligibility:

  • Full or part-time ETSU employee or student

  • At least 18 years of age

  • A caregiver of an adult 50 years or older (family member, friend, or neighbor) in the past 90 days

  • Physically present in the U.S. during the time of the study
