This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing a new care management checklist designed to help families and healthcare teams prepare for the transition to hospice care when someone has advanced dementia. The checklist asks important questions about the person's care needs, end-of-life wishes, and family concerns during conversations between care managers and family members. The goal is to see whether this tool is practical, acceptable, and helpful for everyone involved in planning this important transition.
Moving to hospice care can be confusing and stressful for families caring for someone with advanced dementia. This study exists to test whether a simple, guided checklist can help families and healthcare providers have better conversations and make clearer plans during this difficult time.

If you are a family caregiver, a care manager will contact you by phone to discuss your loved one's care needs and wishes using the new checklist. The conversation will cover topics like healthcare decisions, end-of-life preferences, and support needs. If you are a healthcare provider or administrator, you will use the checklist in your regular work with families and provide feedback on how well it works and whether it is helpful.
