Objective: To describe the challenges faced by rural caregivers in providing assistance to older family members with Alzheimer's disease and closely related conditions.Procedure: Preliminary focus group findings from a new grant initiative, Alzheimer's Rural Care Healthline, that assesses the efficacy of telephone-based cognitive-behavioral intervention for rural dementia caregivers. Groups identified specific caregiver educational and skills-training requirements and best methods for soliciting referrals from rural health providers, community elder care agencies, and churches.Results: Trust emerged as an overarching theme, along with family and community privacy issues and the stigma associated with dementia.Conclusions: Future studies should consider the educational priorities, technological requirements, and sociocultural context of rural caregivers in designing telehealth-based interventions, including issues of privacy, stigma, and trust. Recognition of these factors may lead to increased acceptability, frequency of use, and sustainability of rural telehealth programs.
