Results: The mean and standard deviation of the total score of Caregiver Burden was 39. 06 ± 21. 07. Caregivers withstood the most burden in time-dependent burden (13. 86± 6. 01) and experienced the least burden in social burden (5. 27± 4. 39). There was a significant difference between the total score of care burden by gender, duration of care for the Elderly with Alzheimer's disease, cargiver age, caregiver-to-Elderly ratio, degree of Alzheimer's, income status (p <0. 05).
