FL-REACH: Pilot Trial of a Brief Dementia Caregiver Intervention

The FL REACH intervention is a 6-session intervention designed to facilitate transition to care following delivery of a memory disorders diagnosis by a MDC team. The intervention focused on an approach that used a toolbox of strategies to tailor skills-based learning, knowledge transmission, and self-care strategies to dementia caregivers. This pilot study focuses on adapting the established REACH II intervention for translation to the clinical setting, with a focus not only on implementation of the key components of the program, but also on feasibility and sustainability. This is part of a stepped-care model that is being developed at the AdventHealth-Orlando MDC. Caregivers of patients will be referred to the FL REACH intervention for foundational training and skills-development.
