More than 20 million people in the United States perform medical/nursing tasks at home for their family members and friends. Many of these family caregivers are left on their own to learn
how to provide that complex care, such as administering pills, suppositories, and injections, caring for wounds, and managing intense pain. Hospital leaders across the country share how
they use learning resources to prepare family caregivers to perform that care in _Learning Resources and Practices to Improve Patient and Family Engagement: 12 Ways to Facilitate Family
Caregiver Education_. This paper notes that more and/or better instruction is the most common response from family caregivers when asked what would make it easier to perform
medical/nursing tasks at home. The paper also details their preferred instructional formats.
