In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Dementia Care Quality at Home for Dementia and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 50 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to develop a dementia care intervention for persons receiving home-based primary care (HBPC) and living with dementia (PLWD) and their caregivers, and test the feasibility of implementing the intervention in HBPC practices to ultimately improve outcomes of PLWD and their caregivers. The main aims are to: * Develop and refine HBPC Dementia Care Quality at Home * Establish feasibility (primary outcome), acceptability, and fidelity of HBPC Dementia Care Quality at Home through an open-pilot trial involving two HBPC practices. Trained clinicians and staff at two HBPC practices will implement the intervention Relevant stakeholders (caregivers of PLWD, and HBPC clinicians and staff) will participate in qualitative focus groups to provide feedback on the intervention.
