Resources for Enhancing Alzheimer's Caregiver Health (REACH II)
The REACH II Intervention
In this podcast taped during the recent Aging in America Conference held in Las Vegas, NV, Dr. Linda Nichols discusses how the Veterans Administration is successfully implementing the REACH II intervention across the country. VA Medical Center at Memphis is serving as the Coordinating Center for this program, providing evaluation and training to the clinical sites, with the assistance of the REACH II investigators, including Dr. Nichols. Across the country, 20 Home Based Primary Care (HBPC) programs, which treat frail dementia patients and their caregivers in the home, are providing the intervention to 200 caregivers.
