Primary outcome measures
Percentage of enrolled participants who attend 80% of ECHO program sessions
Proportion of patients with dementia and/or their care partners seen by participating clinicians who are engaged in ACP.
Secondary outcome measures
Participating clinician satisfaction rating: questionnaire designed for this study
Percentage of enrolled participants who plan to continue to engage patients with dementia in ACP

ADVANCE-PC Trial Design

1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Pilot participantsExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants will participate in ADVANCE-PC training via ECHO and will receive practice facilitation support, if needed. To assess the feasibility of the ADVANCE-PC training and implementation support, research data will be collected from participating clinicians at three time points. Two data collection points will be pre and post ECHO program training questionnaires about attitudes, experience, and intentions related to ACP and dementia. The third will be an interview at the end of the follow-up period, focusing on barriers to and facilitators of ACP in the context of dementia and the impact of the training and implementation support. Feasibility and acceptability of this intervention will be evaluated using descriptive and qualitative analyses of these data.
