Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
The intervention consists of two (2) different types of training, both to be delivered through a train-the-trainer approach. The first of these is coaching-supervision training for nurse managers and other supervisory personnel in the CLC units. The second component is a one-day training for DCWs on communication and managing problem behaviors associated with dementia. These two trainings build on validated training models that have been developed by PHINational, but will be adapted and customized to include VA-developed clinical content on the management of problem behaviors associated with dementia.
