Healthcare and Community Organizations Implementing Evidence-Based Dementia Caregiving Programs: Findings From Best Programs for Caregiving.
Article in The Gerontologist, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesA major success in implementation science is the delivery of evidence-based dementia support programs for family/friend caregivers by service organizations. Best Programs for Caregiving (BPC) launched in 2020 as an online resource profiling 42 evidence-based programs being delivered as regular services. Data collected in 2018-2019 describes the number, characteristics, and experiences of organizations delivering BPC programs. RESEARCH AND DESIGN
methodsData came from structured surveys of program developers and organizations delivering BPC programs. Descriptive analyses profile programs and organizations.
resultsIn 2018-2019, 350 organizations were reported as implementing 37 BPC programs, serving an estimated 40,000 caregivers and persons living with dementia. Most delivery organizations were healthcare systems (n = 77, 23.8%), Area Agencies on Aging (AAAs; n = 77, 23.8%), or Alzheimer's/Dementia Associations (n = 39, 12.0%). Eighteen funding sources were used to cover program delivery costs, which most commonly were the Older Americans Act Title III-E (n = 60, 34.3%) and non-ACL grants (n = 49, 28.0%). The most common challenges with delivering programs were marketing (n = 124, 69.8%) and engaging caregivers (n = 118, 66.3%), despite high satisfaction with program training and support. DISCUSSION AND IMPLICATIONS: More organizations than previously known were delivering evidence-based BPC programs. Delivery experiences varied widely, with top challenges highlighting the need to increase knowledge of the availability of dementia caregiving support programs. Findings offer benchmarks for assessing the future availability and reach of evidence-based dementia caregiving programs to meet the needs of the increasing number of families caring for individuals living with dementia.
