Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to develop an interprofessional education and practice model for acute care related to dementia and evaluate its effectiveness of implementation.


Clinical Trial Description

The researchers will recruit participants from a medical center (experimental group) and two regional hospitals (control group) in southern Taiwan. Both the experimental group and the control group will contain 150 healthcare professionals and 64 patients with dementia. Both of the groups will receive a six-hour dementia care course. Then, only the experimental group will receive a half-day interprofessional education workshop, maintain a six-month interprofessional practice model, and join interprofessional practice experience-sharing conferences. The evaluation of outcomes will include the analyses of healthcare professionals' knowledge, attitudes, and self-efficacy of dementia care. The evaluation times are to be before and after the dementia care course and after the six months of interprofessional practice. The other evaluation of outcome is comparison of the outcomes of hospitalized patients with dementia between the two groups before the interprofessional education workshop and after the interprofessional practice. ;
