Abstract
Hispanic care providers report high levels of self-efficacy with regard to being a caregiver, an overall satisfaction with support provided, and burden levels that suggest a need for follow-up. Participants indicated a desire for more knowledge, improved caregiving skills, and more emotional support. The respondents stated that the spiritual side of life and religious involvement were important both prior to and as a caregiver. Lower acculturation scores were reported for caregivers who were citizens of Mexico, were experiencing increased financial strain, had received help from others for a shorter duration, and had been in the caregiving role longer.
