The current study aimed to investigate the perspectives of family caregivers of people with Alzheimer's disease on caregiving experience and needs. A qualitative descriptive method was used with a sample of 23 family caregivers. Data were collected through in-depth, face-to-face interviews using a pilot-tested semi-structured interview guide. Data analysis was performed via content analysis. Three major themes emerged: (1) Stuck in Caregiving, (2) A Life in Metamorphosis, and (3) Needs. Findings revealed that caregivers struggled to manage the care process, adapt to life changes, and fulfill their needs. This study provides rich data to help create interventions to assist family caregivers.
