PCAD II Project

PCAD II Project: Group Homes and People with ID and Dementia

The PCAD-2 project was designed to look at how agencies operating group homes are adapting their services and supports to individuals affected by Alzheimer's disease and related dementias. This phase of the PCAD project had several components, one of which looked at group home dementia care and how it is practiced across the world. Another component examined the amount of effort and time given over to dementia related care in group homes.
