Social & Caregiver Support
This Measurement Domain covers instruments that assess perceived social support or the burden experienced by informal caregivers, rather than a patient’s own symptoms or function. These instruments are typically completed by patients reporting on their support networks, or by caregivers themselves, and are used in chronic illness and caregiving research to understand the wider impact of illness on families and support systems. They are available for digital administration through the PROMinsight platform.
