Strength for Caregiving
The goal of this single-arm pre-post study is to promote elderly (≥ 65 years) family caregivers' dietary habits, well-being and functional capacity through comprehensive nutritional guidance. The main goals of the project are to: * Improve the well-being, resilience, and functional capacity of the participating family caregivers through the comprehensive nutritional counseling implemented as part of the project. * Create a nutrition counseling model that promotes the well-being and coping of family caregivers and can also be utilized in well-being services counties after the project concludes. * Produce up-to-date and practical nutrition materials for family caregivers. The project participants will participate in two individual nutrition counselling sessions and three group nutrition counseling sessions over a period of ten months. Researchers will compare the results of the participants' baseline and final measurements to see if nutrition counseling is effective in improving family caregivers' well-being, resilience, and functional capacity.
