Dementia Collaborative Care - Patients
Patient and caregivers assigned to the three in-person assessments and no mobile application group will complete the following: * The caregiver will be asked to complete three in-person assessments that involve answering survey questions and an interview. * Some of the questions asked will be related to Behavioral and/or Psychological Symptoms the patient experiences. * The caregiver will be asked to answer questions about the patient, the patient's experience with the research study and the caregiver's own experience with the research study. * If the patient's "symptoms" or the caregiver's "distress" answers reach a high enough level, a member of the research study team and clinical team will contact the caregiver to ask more questions and check in on the patient and caregiver's safety. * The research study team will also notify Dr. Bateman (the person responsible for the research). Standard Assessments: The caregiver and patient will receive the same questionnaires and surveys that the intervention group will receive. However, they will not receive the mobile phone application questionnaires.

However, they will not receive the mobile phone application questionnaires.
Dementia Collaborative Care Plus BrainCare Notes Application - Patients
Patient and caregivers assigned to the three in-person assessments and mobile application group will complete the same tasks that Group 1 (control group) will complete with the addition of the following: * The caregiver will be asked to monitor the patient and complete 5 to 10-minute long surveys (the neuropsychiatric inventory questionnaire) sent to the caregiver through the mobile application or in-person at each follow-up visit. * The caregiver will be asked to monitor and complete these surveys at different times for a period of 6 months. Mobile Phone Application Assessments: The BrainCare Notes app was designed to be installed on the caregiver's phone. It has the capacity to send Neuropsychiatric Inventory Questionnaire (NPI-Q) assessments to the caregiver. If the answers to the behavioral and psychological symptoms rise above the threshold, the clinicians will be notified, and a care plan will be enacted, in order to keep the patient and caregiver safe. The application also has the ability to send and receive private messages between caregiver and the patient's clinical care team. Standard Assessments: The caregiver and patient will receive the same questionnaires and surveys that the intervention group will receive. However, they will not receive the mobile phone application questionnaires.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Calculated at 3 months

Population: There were 2 patients from the control group (dementia collaborative care arm) that passed away before the 3 month period was met, therefore the outcome wasn't collected from the caregivers. The study was terminated before the other participant reached the 3 month time point.

The NPI-Q is a questionnaire administered to a caregiver who cares for a person with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), Alzheimer's disease (AD) or dementia. Symptom severity scores for each of the symptom domain range between 0-not present, 1 - mild, 2-moderate, 3-severe. The summation of all symptom severity scores have a range of a minimum score of 0 and maximum score of 36, where the higher the number indicates worse symptom severity.

Patient and caregivers assigned to the three in-person assessments and no mobile application group will complete the following: * The caregiver will be asked to complete three in-person assessments that involve answering survey questions and an interview. * Some of the questions asked will be related to Behavioral and/or Psychological Symptoms the patient experiences. * The caregiver will be asked to answer questions about the patient, the patient's experience with the research study and the caregiver's own experience with the research study. * If the patient's "symptoms" or the caregiver's "distress" answers reach a high enough level, a member of the research study team and clinical team will contact the caregiver to ask more questions and check in on the patient and caregiver's safety. * The research study team will also notify Dr. Bateman (the person responsible for the research). Standard Assessments: The caregiver and patient will receive the same questionnaires and surveys that the intervention group will receive. However, they will not receive the mobile phone application questionnaires.
Randomized - Dementia Collaborative Care Plus BrainCare Notes Application - Caregivers
n=2 Participants
Patient and caregivers assigned to the three in-person assessments and mobile application group will complete the same tasks that Group 1 (control group) will complete with the addition of the following: * The caregiver will be asked to monitor the patient and complete 5 to 10-minute long surveys (the neuropsychiatric inventory questionnaire) sent to the caregiver through the mobile application or in-person at each follow-up visit. * The caregiver will be asked to monitor and complete these surveys at different times for a period of 6 months. Mobile Phone Application Assessments: The BrainCare Notes app was designed to be installed on the caregiver's phone. It has the capacity to send Neuropsychiatric Inventory Questionnaire (NPI-Q) assessments to the caregiver. If the answers to the behavioral and psychological symptoms rise above the threshold, the clinicians will be notified, and a care plan will be enacted, in order to keep the patient and caregiver safe. The application also has the ability to send and receive private messages between caregiver and the patient's clinical care team. Standard Assessments: The caregiver and patient will receive the same questionnaires and surveys that the intervention group will receive. However, they will not receive the mobile phone application questionnaires.
Outcome of the Change in Behavioral and Psychological Symptoms (BPSD) Score- Specifically Any Change Seen at 6 Months From What Was Reported at Baseline.
6 score on a scale
Interval 2.0 to 10.0

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Calculated at 3 months

Population: There were 2 patients from the control group (dementia collaborative care arm) that passed away before the 3 month period was met, therefore the outcome wasn't collected from the caregivers. Data from the remaining participants wasn't collected as the study was terminated before reaching this time point. The study was terminated before the other participant reached the 3 month time point.

The NPI-Q is a questionnaire administered to the caregiver who cares for a person with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), Alzheimer's disease (AD) or dementia. The Caregiver Distress scores for each of the symptom domain range between: 0 = Not distressing at all, 1 = Minimal, 2 = Mild, 3 = Moderate, 4 = Severe, 5 = Extreme or Very Severe. The summation of all the Caregiver Distress scores ranges from a min score of 0 and max score of 60, where the higher the number indicates worse Caregiver Distress severity.
