Summary
This study tests a care management checklist designed to guide end-of-life care and hospice transitions for people with advanced dementia and their care partners. Researchers will work with a home healthcare agency to see if the checklist is feasible, acceptable, and usable. The study involves 96 participants and focuses on improving the transition process rather than treating the disease itself.

Active substance
Dementia Care Management Checklist for Hospice Transitions (behavioral intervention)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a practical tool to improve end-of-life care and hospice transitions for people with advanced dementia and their families.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early feasibility study with only 96 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The intervention is behavioral and may not change outcomes significantly.
