Description

Jay Shen, Ji Yoo, and Pearl Kim evaluate a training and telehealth program for dementia care in a 2023 paper. In a shortage area, primary care teams got interprofessional training plus telehealth tools for geriatric care. The study compared fifty-eight older patients with mild to moderate dementia, half seen by trained providers and half not.

Care by trained providers saved an average of more than twenty-two thousand dollars per patient in hospital costs. Quality marks also jumped: caregiver education referrals and documented care plans each rose from low teens to roughly half of patients. Readers get proof that team training plus telehealth can lift dementia care where specialists are scarce.
