Brief Summary:
This study will evaluate the Pain Identification and Communication Toolkit PICT a multicomponent intervention for caregivers of people with Alzheimers disease and related dementias ADRD PICT provides training in observational pain assessment and coaching in effective pain communication techniques It will recruit participants from programs of all-inclusive care for the elderly PACE The investigators hypothesize that PICT will help caregivers to recognize and communicate about pain in their care recipients
Detailed Description:
Up to 60 of older persons with Alzheimers disease and related dementias ADRD suffer from bothersome pain and nearly half experience pain-related activity limitations Despite best-practice guidelines calling for routine pain assessment of persons with ADRD pain is severely under-detected and poorly managed in this population A major barrier to the identification and treatment of pain in persons with ADRD is impaired communication Informal family caregivers are well situated to detect pain and facilitate management in persons with ADRD given their extensive involvement in care activities However caregivers receive virtually no guidance or training in these areas The Pain Identification and Communication Toolkit PICT is a multicomponent intervention for ADRD caregivers that provides training in observational pain assessment and coaching in effective pain communication techniques PICT consists of 4 weekly telephone sessions 30-60 minutes each delivered by a trained interventionist This project aims to 1 determine the efficacy of PICT compared with an Attention Control AC condition 2 identify the patient and caregiver factors that may moderate the effects of PICT on study outcomes and 3 evaluate the mechanisms theoretically-derived variables by which PICT affects study outcomes Participants will be recruited from programs of all-inclusive care for the elderly PACE programs They will complete assessments at 0 baseline 1 3 and 6 months
