Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
For people with dementia: 1. Behaviour and mood problems person with dementia (NPI-Q) 2. Cornell scale for depression in dementia (Cornell Depression scale) 3. Subscale self-esteem of the Dementia Quality of Life Instrument (DQOL) 4. Quality of life person with dementia (QOL-AD) For informal caregivers 1.

Emotional impact of NPI on carer (NPI-Q) 2. User evaluation questionnaire For the qualitative process evaluation, semi-structured interviews with key figures regarding facilitators and barriers of implementation of the MCSP will be based on the theoretical model of adaptive implementation. This model distinguishes different phases of implementation (preparation-, implementation- and continuation phase), and describes factors that can influence implementation at the micro- (care-provider, patient and informal carer), meso- (collaboration between care providers/ organizations) and macro-level (legal and financial framework) for each phase. The interviews are conducted with representatives from different organizations (care and welfare) involved in the implementation of the MCSP, key figures with professional and financial expertise and key figures at the local level (municipality) and at the regional level (e.g. Alzheimer association).
