BrainLive Connect: Volunteer Training Programme
Recruiting now · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Healthy Adults Aged 50 and Over
In brief
The goal of this mixed method clinical trial is to evaluate whether BrainLive Coach training can enhance knowledge, skills, and wellbeing among young old volunteers. The main question it aims to answer are: • Do trained BrainLive Coaches demonstrate greater CST-related knowledge/skills, self-efficacy, and improved quality of life compared with volunteers receiving only educational materials? Researchers will compare the BrainLive Coach training group vs. general service group (young old volunteers) to see whether the intervention leads to enhanced dementia knowledge, sense of competence in dementia care, and approaches to dementia. Participants will be: 1. Adults aged 50 and over - volunteers (nRCT) * Participate in either 80-90 hours of BrainLive Coach training followed by volunteering in BrainLive Connect or receive educational materials on dementia and cognitive health. * Complete assessments at baseline (T0) and post intervention (T1) on dementia knowledge, competence in dementia care, self-efficacy, attitudes to dementia, quality of life, and social capital. 2. Qualitative study participants • Take part in individual interviews or focus groups, including trained volunteers, and NGO staff, to explore perceived impacts, mechanisms, implementation facilitators/barriers, and areas for improvement.
