Methods: Home care clients were assessed using the Resident Assessment Instrument for Home Care (RAI-HC). Their caregiver completed the 12-item Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI), the main dependent measure, which was linked to the RAI-HC. Results: In the sample ( n = 344), 48% were aged 85+ years and 61.6% were female. The algorithm can be collapsed into four categories (low, moderate, high, and very high risk). Relative to the low-risk group, clients in the very high-risk group had an odds ratio of 5.16 (95% confidence interval: [2.05, 12.9]) for long-term care admission, after adjusting for client age, sex, and regional health authority. Discussion: The CaRE algorithm represents a new tool to be used by home care clinicians as they proactively plan for the needs of clients and their caregivers.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0733464820920102","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,5,27]],"date-time":"2020-05-27T01:24:35Z","timestamp":1590542675000},"page":"731-741","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["Development and Validation of Caregiver Risk Evaluation (CaRE): A New Algorithm to Screen for Caregiver Burden"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"40","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3241-6580","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dawn M.","family":"Guthrie","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Wilfrid Laurier University, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nicole","family":"Williams","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Wilfrid Laurier University, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Cheryl","family":"Beach","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Fraser Health, Surrey, British Columbia, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Colleen J.","family":"Maxwell","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Deborah","family":"Mills","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Island Health, Victoria, British Columbia, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lori","family":"Mitchell","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Winnipeg Regional Health Authority, Manitoba, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"R.
