HOBSCOTCH-CA (HOme-Based Self-management and COgnitive Training CHanges Lives in Brain CAncer)

HOBSCOTCH is a home-based self-management program to treat cognitive symptoms and improve quality of life, while minimizing the barriers of access to care. The program is based on Problem Solving Therapy (PST) and teaches problem solving strategies and compensatory mechanisms to help manage cognitive dysfunction and enhance quality of life. HOBSCOTCH-CA is an adaptation of the HOBSCOTCH program for people who are survivors of brain cancer or a brain tumor that incorporates education about the effects from brain cancer/tumor and its treatment on cognition into the education module and gives them the option of enrolling with a Caregiver. CA Participants receive all sessions of HOBSCOTCH-CA. If they enroll with a Caregiver, the Caregiver participates in the education (introductory) session and sessions 1 and 8. The HOBSCOTCH-CA Participant may invite their Caregiver to attend all sessions.
