Description: It is well recognized that early diagnosis and ongoing management of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) requires a patient-centric, highly coordinated effort among a large multidisciplinary team of clinicians. As such, this proposed initiative establishes meaningful, small group interactions among key stakeholders (neurologists, dementia specialists, geriatricians, geriatric psychologists, radiologists, and primary care clinicians) that will, through a variety of collaborative educational experiences, help all members of the care team consider approaches to reducing barriers to effective coordinated care and encourages each participant to create an action plan to improve the quality of AD care delivered within their organization. Considering the complexity of this challenge, lack of expertise, and the breadth of communication and cooperation required, participants would highly benefit from an educational intervention that includes discussions with knowledgeable experts and peers from within and outside of their own communities who can share experiences, strategies, challenges, and success stories.
