Abstract:	Background: Changing social and economic structures of an aging society have resulted in the growing demand for foreign caregivers (‘paid migrant workers who provide in-home help to aging adults) among families in many developed countries, including Taiwan. However, less documented and understood is how these foreign caregivers perceive their roles and responsibilities. This study aimed to describe the lived experiences of Indonesian caregivers, the largest migrant working population in Taiwan which their perspectives may give a better understanding of foreign policymakers. Methods: Through a phenomenological approach, in-depth interviews were conducted with 20 Indonesian caregivers (mean age: 36 years) providing care for community-dwelling older stroke survivors (≥65 years) in Taiwan. Interview were transcribed verbatim and interpreted by the research team using thematic analysis. Methodological rigor was attained through member checking, triangulation, and audit trails. Results: Six themes were derived from the data analysis. The experience of being foreign caregivers of older adults with stroke was described as a process of adapting and transitioning of foreign caregivers’ ability, involving physical, social, psychological, and cultural aspects. Conclusion: This study gave an insight into foreign caregivers' lived experiences on providing care to stroke survivors. The findings of this study may have implications in policymaking and practice reformation for better supports to foreign caregivers.
