Fostering Positive Care Interactions in Assisted Living

Running, not enrolling · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Dementia

In brief

The purpose of this study is to improve the quality of staff-resident care interactions particularly among residents living with Alzheimer's disease or related dementias (ADRD ) by testing the Fostering Positive Care Interactions in Assisted Living (FPCI-AL) intervention. This study will be a critical first step in determining the sample size needed to test the efficacy of a practical approach to improving the quality of care interactions for assisted living residents living with ADRD, ultimately enhancing behavioral outcomes such as decreasing behavioral symptoms of distress, reducing resistiveness to care, and optimizing engagement in care tasks.
