“…It is important to note, however, that all but one study in this review (Döpp et al, 2011) used pre-post designs with no control group, which have inherent risk of bias. This pragmatic approach to evaluation is common in implementation research, due to the complexity of implementation issues (Glasgow, 2011), but future research with more rigorous designs may help confirm these findings.…”

Objective This study aimed to identify the nature and effects of implementation strategies to increase the use of evidence-based, non-pharmacological interventions designed to reduce the frequency and/or severity of behavioral and psychological symptoms associated with dementia, for people living in the community. Design This was a systematic review of implementation studies. We searched six databases (in January 2019) and hand-searched reference lists of reports. Studies were included if they used quantitative methods evaluating the use of implementation strategies to increase the use of non-pharmacological interventions. These interventions had to have been tested in a randomized controlled trial (RCT) and found to reduce behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia, for those living in the community. Studies needed to report the effect of the implementation on clinical practice, for example, a change in practice or the adoption of the intervention in community settings. Results Twelve studies were included: 11 one-group pre-post design studies and 1 cluster RCT. All studies reported practice change – the majority implementing a new intervention, with six different types of interventions implemented. All studies reported including using partnerships, new funding, educational strategies, and ongoing support and consultation. Seven implementation studies reported positive outcomes for clients on some aspect of behavior or depression for the person with dementia. Conclusions Implementation studies using multiple implementation strategies to increase the use of non-pharmacological interventions have demonstrated improvements in behavioral and psychological symptoms common in people with dementia, when provided by clinicians as part of their everyday work routines.

“…For example, the VHA's Resources for Enhancing Alzheimer Caregivers' Health (REACH VA) program, originally based in Tennessee, offers in-home support to caregivers of veterans with dementia and has been effective in decreasing perceived caregiver burden (Glasgow, 2011;Nichols, Martindale-Adams, Burns, Graney, & Zuber, 2011;Widera & Covinsky, 2011). However, because the REACH VA program was specifically designed for caregivers of veterans with dementia, all the information, support, and services are targeted specifically to dementia caregivers (Nichols et al, 2011).…”

The Veterans Health Administration offers multiple programs to support veteran's caregivers. This study examines one such program, modeled after the national VHA Home Based Primary Care Program (HBPC). A retrospective secondary data analysis was conducted on the VHA GAP program, examining the impact on reducing caregiver burden. Findings from examination of 48 veteran/caregiver dyads indicated the program had a clinically and statistically significant impact on decreasing caregiver role strain. These findings were compared to the national evidence-based HBPC program, finding no significant differences in decrease of caregiver burden between the recipients of the GAP program and the national HBPC programs.
