Date
2017
Abstract
Introduction: This analysis finds itself in the overlap between the Dementia and Dementia Care, Attachment, and Social Support literatures. Previous authors call for application of an established theoretical framework to exploring support-seeking in Family Carers for People Living with Dementia (PLwD). The current research sought better understanding of the role of the Family Carer as support recipient in cultivating or hindering support processes and related outcomes. Prioritisation of self-care is also considered in the context of the reported lived experience of participants
