Sample size differs from baseline to post-intervention as 1 dyad withdrew after baseline data collection, but prior to beginning the intervention period. Only the 20 dyads that completed the intervention were included in the calculations for scored measures.
Sample size differs for the RAID – PWD and QOL-AD – PWD as only 10 participants with dementia were able to complete these measures.
▲Completed by interview of participant with dementia ■Completed by interview of caregiver ● Completed by questionnaire by caregiver
