Please tell me about yourself (include health history questions). |
How would you describe you overall health? |
Please tell me about the care recipient (information about the person, type of dementia, etc). |
Please tell me about your caregiving experience. |
What is your experience with physical activity? |
Do you believe physical activity helps to manage stress? Why or why not? |
What makes it difficult to participate in physical activity? |
What makes it easier to participate in physical activity? |
Ms. J | Mr. M | |
---|---|---|
Age * | Sixties | Sixties |
Relationship to care recipient | Daughter | Son |
Employment status | Retired | Work-from-home full time |
Self-perception of health status | “Good” with “some issues” | “Decent health” |
Health conditions | Hypertension, osteoarthritis (hip replacement), cerebral aneurysm | Type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, chronic pain/joint injuries |
Physical activity background | Tries to stay active but no history of heavy exercise | Athletics for much of his life then took up swimming for exercise |
Physical activity while caregiving | Exercise at a gym (treadmill, walking on track, stationary bike). Previously on a treadmill at home, walking in neighborhood, gardening | Mostly swimming for exercise, sometimes walks with his spouse |
Frequency or other measures of physical activity | About an hour most days | Not clearly quantified by participant |
Impact of physical activity on caregiving | Social benefit of gym membership. Stress relief. | Stress relief. Identifies value of being alone. |
Facilitators of physical activity | Motivation is for health reasons, especially not wanting to need a lot of medication. | Accessibility of swimming pool. Personal recognition of importance of self-care in caregiving. |
Barriers to physical activity | May decide to sleep in. Weather (raining in morning). | Fatigue |
Caregiver Barriers to Physical Activity | Themes/Codes (Perceptions) and Definitions Related to MitoFit Identified by Adults Aged 50+ That Address Caregiver Barriers [19] |
---|---|
Limited time | Making a plan—Recognition that mitochondrial fitness requires a plan that one perceives as doable Accessible—Realization that MitoFit is practical and attainable Finding what works—Appreciation for the ability to choose activities that one perceives as individually achievable IMPLICATION: Increased perception of feasibility |
Lack of support | Sense of Agency—Subjective feeling of ability to achieve a goal Removes moral judgement- Sense that MitoFit content reduces feeling of shame or guilt by replacing with awareness of scientific foundations IMPLICATION: Enhancement of self-reliance |
Scheduling constraints | Options and Variety—Recognition that MitoFit offers variety and options for PA Simple—Realization that PA does not have to be hard and can be achieved in one’s own home IMPLICATION: Diminishment of roadblocks to PA |
Health conditions/fatigue | Positive Emotions—Pleasant state of mind Enjoyable Good Helpful Makes sense Nice IMPLICATION: Positive perceptions contribute to the likelihood of engaging in physical activity |
Lack of motivation | Actionable—Perception of practical value Affirming—Sense of support and encouragement Steady state—Perceptions of stability over time Leaves you wanting more—Sense of anticipation to learn more and to engage in PA IMPLICATION: Perceptions that minimize obstacles that prevent initiation and sustainability of PA |
