Summary

The purpose of this study is to improve the quality of staff-resident care interactions particularly among residents living with Alzheimer's disease or related dementias (ADRD ) by testing the Fostering Positive Care Interactions in Assisted Living (FPCI-AL) intervention. This study will be a critical first step in determining the sample size needed to test the efficacy of a practical approach to improving the quality of care interactions for assisted living residents living with ADRD, ultimately enhancing behavioral outcomes such as decreasing behavioral symptoms of distress, reducing resistiveness to care, and optimizing engagement in care tasks.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

FPCI-AL

Following randomization, champions and stakeholder team members from the communities will be identified. The investigators will recommend the following individuals to be members of the stakeholder team: assisted living administrator, nurse manager, nursing assistant, and activity and rehabilitation staff as available. Following the initial team meeting, the research facilitator will work with each treatment assisted living community for eight hours weekly during months one and two, and then for four hours weekly for the remaining four months using a face-to-face approach to implement the four components of the FPCI-AL.

BEHAVIORAL

Education Only (EO)

Communities randomized to education only will receive the same education as provided in FPCI-AL step two via an established PowerPoint. Delivery format will match community preferences (e.g., online or in-person) for pragmatic reasons and to facilitate the education process.
