Abstract
In this poster, we present findings from a study focused on understanding the needs of informal family caregivers and gathering stakeholder perspectives on early concepts for an application designed to help family members coordinate the day-to-day care of their loved ones. The results of our formative study point to the need for solutions that can not only enhance the collaborative nature of caregiving but also support the family as the care recipient’s journey and/or needs change.
