Summary

Dementia is a common problem for older patients presenting to emergency departments and for the family caregivers who often lack support, understanding, and skills to manage the problems related to the need for emergency department visits. The purpose of Program of Intensive Support in Emergency Departments for Care Partners of Cognitively Impaired Patients (POISED-CPCIP, here on referred to as POISED) randomized controlled trial is to use previously established quality improvement methods of root cause analysis to uncover reasons for emergency department use and to focus on caregiver activation within a program of dementia care management.
