Connect-Home: Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias
This trial is testing a behavioral program called Connect-Home ADRD, designed to support people with Alzheimer's or dementia and their caregivers during the stressful transition out of a skilled nursing facility and back into home or another care setting. Researchers want to know whether the program reduces caregiver strain and calms behavioral symptoms in patients. This is a Phase NA study, meaning it is evaluating real-world effectiveness of a care model, not a drug.
