Family caregivers of the intervention group received information support such as a face to face presentation content as a training booklet. The control group received the educational brochure. Both groups completed the demographic information form. The HADS questionnaire was completed in two stages.
Results: The mean and standard deviation of the intervention and control groups anxiety scores were 8.53 (SD=2.46) and 7.70 (SD=2.29) respectively before the information support. The two groups had no significant difference in the level of anxiety before the intervention. After the intervention in the control group, at each stage, the mean score did not change significantly 7.07 (3.51), but in the intervention group the mean anxiety score decreased 5.75(6.62). However, the difference was not statistically significant (P=0.25). However, it was significant with the time group Generalized Estimating Equation test (P=0.001).
