Summary

This trial will evaluate if Patient Priorities Care, a conversation that identifies and prioritizes patient goals, can improve health outcomes for those living with dementia or mild cognitive impairment.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for English-speaking patients at Indiana sites or English/Spanish speakers in Texas, aged 40+, with mild cognitive impairment or dementia. They must be treated by a participating doctor and have an outpatient visit scheduled within two months.
What is being tested?
The study tests Patient Priorities Care (PPC) in primary care and geriatrics clinics. It involves identifying eligible patients using health records, engaging them in PPC conversations about their priorities, and measuring outcomes like days at home.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on conversation-based intervention rather than medication, traditional side effects are not applicable. However, participants may experience emotional or psychological impacts from discussing their priorities.
