About this trial

The overarching goal of this work is to determine methods that improve caregiver education about the behavioral and psychological symptoms (BPSD) of dementia. The specific goal of this project is to extend our prior work to evaluate the impact of our educational intervention on caregivers' ability to transfer knowledge about the management of ADRD to real-world applied examples.
