Description

Katherine Possin and a large team report long term results for a dementia care program called the Care Ecosystem. The program pairs each person with dementia and their caregiver with a trained navigator by phone, backed by a team of specialists. Past trials covered only 12 months of care.

The extension study follows 456 pairs with high caregiver burden for up to five years or to end of life. Outcomes include quality of life for the person with dementia, plus caregiver depression, confidence, and burden. Hospital and emergency use are also tracked. Results matter for policy because a new Medicare payment model now backs this style of care for wider use.
