Официальное название
GPS Project - Evaluation of the Impact of the Reorganization of Work Into a Family Medicine Group on Pharmacotherapy and Support for the Autonomy of Seniors With Major Neurocognitive Disorders
Обзор
The model of care tested in the GPS project aims to optimize pharmacotherapy for seniors undergoing cognitive assessment or suffering from major neurocognitive disorder (MCND) at home. The goal is to reduce polymedication, inappropriate medications and the treatment burden of seniors and to maintain their cognitive health, quality of life and autonomy. The intervention will include knowledge exchange sessions with nurses, pharmacists, and doctors in FMGs, and increased collaboration between these professionals and home care services teams. Other goal is to increase the satisfaction of the seniors, their families, and the professionals involved in the GPS project.
Подробное описание
: The GPS project is part of the desire to keep seniors with major neurocognitive disorder (MCND) in their homes for as long as possible. Medication can contribute to cognitive loss in seniors and affect their functional autonomy. The arrival of pharmacists in FMGs and the expansion of their practice is opening up new opportunities to promote interdisciplinary collaboration and optimize pharmacotherapy for seniors. During the project, a new model of care, called GPS, is being tested with seniors. A group of seniors (approximately 200) will receive the new care team's new interventions in the FMGs in the "intervention" group. Another group of seniors (about 200) will receive the usual care in other FMGs that will serve as a "control" group. By comparing the results of the two groups, it will be possible to evaluate the effects of new interventions. A period of 12 months will be allocated for the inclusion of seniors. The follow-up of each senior will be approximately 6 months.

Nurses and doctors in exposed FMGs and home care teams (HCTs) will be asked to refer to the FMG pharmacist all seniors undergoing cognitive evaluation OR referred to a memory clinic OR recently diagnosed with a cognitive disorder, for a complete and critical review of their medication therapy. FMG pharmacists will be asked to conduct an interview with each referred senior and his or her caregiver, if applicable, in order to establish the best possible treatment regimen. They will compare the inf
