Summary
This study tests whether giving home health aides extra training on dementia care can reduce troubling behaviors in older adults with dementia or mild cognitive impairment and improve quality of life for both patients and their care partners. About 120 patient-care partner pairs will take part. The goal is to see if better-trained aides can make daily life easier and less stressful.
