Depressive Symptoms and Its Associated Factors Among Primary Caregivers of Stroke Survivors at Amhara Regional State Tertiary Hospitals: Multicenter Study.

More attention should be given to caregivers who are female, elderly, have a low income, are sons or daughters, and spend a long time caring per day.
