Evaluation of the Use of a Novel Oral Health Screening Instrument by Caregivers in Nursing Homes
This trial is testing a new oral health screening tool called OHS-interRAI, designed to be used by regular nursing home caregivers rather than dental professionals. Researchers want to know whether using this tool regularly improves the oral health of residents with dementia and other conditions over two years. This is a Phase N/A trial, meaning it is evaluating a practical care tool rather than a drug or medical device.
You may qualify if
- Residents need to be 65 years or older
- Residents have permanent residence in a nursing home
You're excluded if
- Residents with a palliative health situation, assessed using the interRAI LTCF, are excluded.
