DemTool - Supporting Life With Dementia

'DemTool - supporting life with dementia' was developed in Denmark by the Danish Dementia Research Centre with a focus on improving the quality of life of people with dementia and their family caregivers. DemTool was developed to assist professional caregivers in Danish municipalities. It is intended for use by professionals responsible for counseling and educating patients and their family caregivers in primary care settings. This study will examine the impact of DemTool on the quality of life and caregiver strain among family caregivers of individuals with dementia using self-reported data from questionnaires. Family caregivers who participated in the intervention were invited to complete a questionnaire before their inclusion in the study, which served as a baseline measure. They then filled out a follow-up questionnaire approximately one month after receiving their last intervention. Meanwhile, the treatment-as-usual group also completed a questionnaire before study inclusion and received a follow-up questionnaire two months after the baseline measure.
