The Family Care Study was a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the preparedness, skill, enrichment, and predictability (PREP) intervention with caregivers of frail older adults referred for skilled home health. Compared with control caregivers receiving usual home health care (n = 103), PREP intervention caregivers (n = 104) reported greater improvements in family care (effect size, d = 0.58). We conducted follow-up analyses to determine whether PREP was differentially effective depending on whether dyads received concurrent Social Health Maintenance Organization (SHMO) services, concurrent hospice services, or neither. In the 55% of dyads not receiving SHMO or hospice, we found that PREP's effects were large compared to usual care (d = 1.16, p < 0.001). PREP's effects were not significant for dyads receiving concurrent SHMO or hospice services. Results highlight the strong benefits of hospice for control dyads, but reveal difficulties in evaluating intervention effectiveness when dyads receive concurrent services.

The Family Care Study was a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the preparedness, skill, enrichment, and predictability (PREP) intervention with caregiving families of frail older adults referred for skilled home health. Tailoring of PREP began with assessment by the PREP nurse. Families then identified and selected care-related issues to work on with their PREP nurse; family needs and preferences guided the number and timing of nurse visits and calls. Families selected a median of 3 (range = 0 to 10) care-related issues in five categories: direct care (chosen by 57% of families), transitions (40%), caregiver strain and health (40%), arranging care (33%), and enrichment (22%). The number of issues strongly predicted number of PREP nurse visits and calls, whereas nurse visits in turn predicted caregivers' reports of improved family care and usefulness of home health assistance, highlighting the importance of visits for achieving outcomes.
