Core Tip	Distance caregivers (DCGs) are an important subset of family caregivers who are understudied and receive little attention from clinical providers. The limited research has identified that this growing population of caregivers experience anxiety, mood disturbances and distress, yet few, if any interventions for them exist. There is a need for more research to identify the benefits and burdens of DCGs and the impact of this burden on the caregivers, patient and family. Interventions providing support and education for this subset of caregivers must be designed and tested. Advanced technology offers unique strategies to deliver these interventions.
