Summary

This study is testing a year-long training program to help nursing home staff better assess and manage pain in residents with dementia. The program involves monthly team meetings, staff education, mentoring, and tracking pain outcomes. Researchers will compare this intensive approach against basic staff education alone to see which better reduces pain for 300 residents across 12 nursing homes.
