Move&Connect-Caregivers: A virtual group intervention for caregivers of youth experiencing persisting symptoms after concussion.
Caregivers play a critical role in supporting youth experiencing persisting symptoms after concussion (PSAC). However, there are limited empirically validated interventions tailored to the specific needs of caregivers, such as improving concussion knowledge and supporting psychosocial wellbeing. This study aims to describe the development of a virtual group intervention for caregivers of youth experiencing PSAC, Move&Connect-Caregivers (M&C-C), and examine its feasibility. Nine mothers participated across two M&C-C groups. Feasibility metrics and semi-structured interviews were collected and analyzed using descriptive and qualitative content analysis. Results suggest that M&C-C is a feasible intervention. By merging social support, concussion psychoeducation, and active skill building, M&C-C is meaningful for caregivers supporting their children experiencing PSAC.
