(MAC) maintains a website with educational content on dementia (memory.ucsf.edu). New content developed specifically to support family caregivers was developed by a multidisciplinary team of clinicians with expertise in dementia. The MAC’s Family Advisory Council (FAC) of dementia caregivers reviewed the material for relevance and appeal to caregivers, and participated in user testing to help make the website easy to navigate. The new website content was released in September 2017. We used Google Analytics to measure the number of pageviews per month for each MAC webpage from January 2018—January 2019. Results: The number of page views per month for each webpage was derived using Google Analytics. Our results are shown in the attached line graph. From January 2018 to January 2019 there were a total of: 30,193 pageviews for memory.ucsf.edu/behavior-personality-changes; 22,215 pageviews for memory.ucsf.edu/medications-dementia; 2,554 pageviews for memory.ucsf.edu/caregiving-support; 3,373 pageviews for memory.ucsf.edu/tips-daily-life; 1,386 pageviews for memory.ucsf.edu/caregiver-well-being. Conclusions: Our results show that these new dementia caregiver education materials are frequently accessed. The rate of access increased dramatically during the year following release, especially for the behavior symptom management and medications pages. Open access to web content on dementia caregiving appears to be of high value to caregivers.
