Abstract

The family caregiver of a person with Alzheimer’s disease still experiences, in most cases, negative consequences in their biopsychosocial environment, which are related to the acquisition of this role. However, it has been observed that this fact is not universal in this type of population since benefits can be obtained in the act of caring through the development of resilience. Given this possibility and given that nurses are the health professionals who support people in this illness process, there is an urgent need to identify which non-pharmacological interventions could improve or promote resilience in family caregivers of people with Alzheimer’s disease. Therefore, our overall objective was to determine which interventions are useful in promoting resilience in family caregivers of people with Alzheimer’s disease through a scoping review. The data were analysed using an adapted version of Arksey and O’Malley’s methodological framework, after critically reading the articles with the CasP and MMAT tools. Nine articles were included (five analytical experimental, two quantitative and two mixed). Three types of interventions related to promoting resilience in family caregivers of people with Alzheimer’s disease were identified: meditation, multicomponent psychoeducation and creative art; nurses participated as co-therapists in the last two.
