The data collection tools consisted of the Caregiver Burden Inventory (CBI) and Caregivers’ QUALITY OF LIFE Questionnaire. The questionnaires were completed by the participants in the pretest, posttest, and follow-up stages. The experimental group subjects received COMMUNICATION SKILLS training in 7 sessions lasting 60 minutes. The collected data were analyzed using repeated measures ANOVA in SPSS software.Findings: COMMUNICATION SKILLS training resulted in reduced CAREGIVING BURDEN and increased QOL in caregivers in the in experimental group in the posttest and follow-up stages.Conclusions: The results emphasize the importance of the use of these interventions in terms of CAREGIVING BURDEN and QOL in FAMILY CAREGIVERS OF ELDERLY with DEMENTIA.
