Description

Dementia care strains families hardest where services are thin. Gabriela Novotni and co-authors test NOMAD, a home-based program in North Macedonia where a nurse and social worker team visits people with dementia and their caregivers. The trial compares the program against usual care across twelve GP practices in the Skopje region.

Over four home visits, the team builds a personalized care plan with the family doctor and dementia experts, and hands caregivers a manual plus teaching sessions. The study tracks caregiver depression, burden, and quality of life, plus the daily functioning and service use of the person with dementia. Acceptability is assessed alongside outcomes. The authors frame the model as a template for low-resource settings.
