Official title
Mealtime Partnerships for People With Dementia in Respite Centers and at Home
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The goal of this study was to test the efficacy of a mealtime intervention in respite care centers for people with dementia and their caregivers. Mealtimes become more challenging as dementia progresses causing nutritional and behavioral issues in the affected individuals. Using a train-the-trainer program built on the Partners at Meals model, volunteers in respite centers partner worked with caregivers and developed a mealtime plan that builds on the strengths of the person with dementia (PWD), and developed a supportive environment for change. A tele-health component was involved in the communication between the respite center volunteers/staff and families. Recruitment was limited to people attending the particular respite centers. Two large RCCs with a total of 5 sites of care in suburban and rural areas of SC were the sites of this project.
