Invested Partner Feedback on Technology Assistance in Dementia (Tech-AiD).
Everyday technologies, like smartphones, might improve care of persons living with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (PLWADRD) and reduce burden among care partners. However, care partners often report inadequate technical skills for using technology-based strategies. To address this need, we developed a manualized behavioral intervention called Technology Assistance in Dementia (Tech-AiD). We gathered feedback on the intervention concept from invested partners (10 care partners and 10 healthcare professionals) in a multimethod study. Quantitative results suggested very high intervention acceptability (4.55/5), appropriateness (4.36/5), and feasibility (4.11/5). Qualitative responses indicated a willingness to participate in Tech-AiD if available, described the program as a good fit for the needs of persons living with ADRD and care partners, and suggested that Tech-AiD's delivery format was convenient. Qualitative responses also included specific suggestions to improve Tech-AiD (e.g., creation of a technology helpline, booster sessions). Results provide evidence of Tech-AiD's readiness for a pilot trial.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Applied Gerontology (JAG) is the official journal of the Southern Gerontological Society. It features articles that focus on research applications intended to improve the quality of life of older persons or to enhance our understanding of age-related issues that will eventually lead to such outcomes. We construe application broadly and encourage contributions across a range of applications toward those foci, including interventions, methodology, policy, and theory. Manuscripts from all disciplines represented in gerontology are welcome. Because the circulation and intended audience of JAG is global, contributions from international authors are encouraged.
