Alzheimer Disease Clinical Trial
Official title:
Improving Affect and Behavior in Assisted Living Residents
This study will develop a treatment program to reduce mood and behavior problems in assisted living residents who have dementia.
Assisted living is rapidly becoming one of the most common methods of caring for older
adults with dementia in long-term care. Over half of assisted living residents have dementia
and many exhibit affective and behavioral problems related to the condition; residents' care
and quality of life may suffer as a result of these problems. Despite the seriousness of
this condition, interventions to teach direct care staff how to care for these residents are
limited. This study will develop a program for teaching assisted living staff how to deal
with the issues of patients with dementia and reduce mood and behavioral problems among this
population.
Caregivers will be randomly assigned to attend skills training sessions as two 4-hour
workshops, four 30 minute individual training sessions, or two 30 minute in-services.
Training will focus on dementia, depression and anxiety, the incidence of behavior problems,
and skills and techniques for alleviating care challenges associated with behavior problems.
Caregivers will complete self-report scales and questionnaires at the beginning and at the
end of the study; these measures will assess job satisfaction, reactions to resident
behavioral problems, and job skills. Residents will also be recruited for this study; they
will complete questionnaires about their depressive episodes, anxiety, behavioral problems,
and quality of life at the beginning and at the end of the study.
