Person-Environment Fit for Persons With Dementia

Description

This trial will assess feasibility of a non-pharmacological intervention for persons living with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRD) to improve behavioral and psychiatric symptoms of dementia and functional performance.

Using a two-arm, prospective randomized controlled trial, 38 dyads (person with ADRD and caregiver) will complete an 8-week telehealth occupational therapy intervention provided via Zoom with caregivers and persons with dementia or receive an active control with 8 telehealth sessions to discuss publicly available caregiver education with a non-clinical research assistant.
