BEHAVIORAL

Benjamin Rose Institute Care Consultation (BRI-CC)

The BRI-CC is a telephone-based intervention designed for adults with chronic conditions and has been used in persons with dementia and their caregiver (CG). This assessment is guided by the use of assessment tools with domains that trigger specific and pertinent needs of the dyad such as relationship strain, depression, financial concerns, memory problems, and difficult behaviors. To address unmet needs, the care consultant and dyad develop action plans with specific action steps pertinent to the dyad. The intervention involves maintenance and support where the care consultant (CC) continues the relationship with the dyad through regular telephone contact, email and mail. CC use a web-based reporting system, to maintain and track dyad information, assessments, action plans, completed tasks, and ongoing contacts. At a minimum, the care consultant will contact the dyad by telephone once per month over the duration of the study period (i.e. 6 months).
