Dementia Management Training Programme for Primary Health Care Providers

1. Juni 2026 aktualisiert von: Xinying Lin, Fujian Medical University

Application and Effectiveness of a RE-AIM-Based Dementia Management Competency Training Program for Primary Health Care Providers: A Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and implementation outcomes of a dementia management competency training program for primary healthcare workers. A cluster randomized controlled trial will be conducted among primary healthcare institutions in Nanping, Fujian Province, China. Eligible primary health care providers will be recruited from community health service centers and township health centers.Participating institutions will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either a structured dementia management training group or a self-directed learning control group. The intervention group will receive a 12-week blended training program, including online learning, an in-person skills workshop, and case-based practice supervision. The control group will receive self-directed online learning materials. Outcomes will be assessed at baseline, immediately after the intervention, and 3 months after the intervention. The primary outcome is the change in dementia knowledge, measured using the Dementia Knowledge Assessment Scale. Secondary outcomes include dementia-related attitudes, dementia management practice competency, self-reported dementia management behaviors, objective screening and referral-related indicators, and implementation outcomes based on the RE-AIM framework.

Detaillierte Beschreibung

This study uses a hybrid effectiveness-implementation design integrating a cluster randomized controlled trial and implementation evaluation. The trial will assess the effectiveness of a dementia management competency training program for primary health care providers at both the individual and organizational levels. At the individual level, the study will evaluate the effects of the training on dementia knowledge, attitudes, practice competency, and dementia management-related clinical behaviors. At the organizational level, the study will examine reach, adoption, implementation quality, and maintenance of the training program in real-world primary healthcare settings.The study will be conducted in community health service centers and township health centers in Nanping, Fujian Province, China. Primary healthcare institutions will serve as clusters. Approximately 16 institutions will be recruited and randomized to the intervention or control group at a 1:1 ratio, with approximately 20 primary health care providers recruited from each institution.The intervention group will receive a 12-week structured blended training program named "Hand in Hand Along the Memory Path". During weeks 1-4, participants will complete seven online learning modules, with a total learning duration of approximately 3 hours. At the end of week 4, participants will attend an in-person skills workshop of approximately 2 hours, focusing on standardized use of cognitive screening and assessment tools. During weeks 5-12, participants will take part in online case-based supervision every two weeks and complete practice tasks related to cognitive screening and dementia management.The control group will receive self-directed online learning materials, including the same knowledge module videos and text-based materials. However, the control group will not receive structured learning tasks, case analysis, knowledge tests, demonstration videos, forum-based support, learning reminders, expert support, toolkits, in-person workshops, or case-based supervision.Quantitative data will be collected at baseline, immediately after the intervention, and 3 months after the intervention. Semi-structured interviews will be conducted 3 months after the intervention to explore participants' experiences, implementation barriers and facilitators, and factors affecting maintenance. Quantitative and qualitative findings will be integrated according to the RE-AIM framework.

Intervention / Behandlung
Experimental: Structured Dementia Management Training Group
Participants in this group will receive a 12-week structured blended dementia management competency training program. The program includes online learning modules, an in-person skills workshop, case-based supervision, and practice tasks designed to improve dementia knowledge, attitudes, practice competency, and dementia management-related behaviors among primary health care providers.
The intervention is a 12-week blended training program. During weeks 1-4, participants will complete seven online modules with a total learning duration of approximately 3 hours. At the end of week 4, participants will attend a 2-hour in-person skills workshop focusing on standardized cognitive screening and assessment. During weeks 5-12, participants will participate in online case-based supervision every two weeks and complete practice tasks, including cognitive screening records and dementia management case records.

  • "Hand in Hand on the Memory Journey" dementia management training programme
Aktiver Komparator: Self-directed Learning Control Group
Participants in this group will receive self-directed online learning materials related to dementia management. The materials include knowledge module videos and text-based resources but do not include structured learning tasks, case analysis, knowledge tests, demonstration videos, forum-based support, learning reminders, expert support, toolkits, in-person workshops, or case-based supervision.
Participants will be provided with online dementia-related learning materials and will arrange their own learning time and place. No structured completion requirements, assessments, in-person activities, or expert supervision will be provided.

Was misst die Studie?

Primäre Ergebnismessungen

Ergebnis Maßnahme
