Summary

This trial will check if a program can reduce the use of medications that cause low blood sugar in people with Alzheimer's and related diseases in long-term care facilities.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for clinical staff at long-term care facilities, including doctors, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and clinical pharmacists. They must have participated in the STRIDE program aimed at educating on deprescribing diabetes medication for residents with Alzheimer's.
What is being tested?
The STRIDE educational program is being tested to see if it helps reduce the use of diabetes medications that carry a high risk of causing low blood sugar in elderly patients with dementia. The study will also evaluate how well the program is accepted and implemented by healthcare providers.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on an educational program rather than a medical intervention, there are no direct side effects from drugs or treatments. However, changes in prescribing practices could potentially affect patient health outcomes.
