Building on prior categorization of well-being tools, our work has identified several tools that can be used to measure caregiver well-being with a specific focus on those caregivers providing support to older adults with MCC. Most importantly, we have identified tools that can be used to measure caregiver well-being of family caregivers providing support to homebound older adults, an ever-growing population who are high cost and high utilizers of health care services.
