SDSU Improve Quality of Life for Old Adults with Alzheimers Disease Essay

 

This paper is an overview of interventions or programs that have been used to address the defined
problem from Paper #2. Be sure you frame this as an answerable, testable question.
You are asked to find 3-4 journal articles that are of research studies of interventions/programs for
the defined problem you have selected. If there are no direct studies, then you will need to find
research done in a similar area. Feel free to discuss this with me any time or come to my office
hours for assistance in library research. You may select one program and describe three different
studies of it or you may select three different interventions and summarize them.
 

For this paper, (1) Begin with your testable question: What is the question that these studies will
address?  For example, your question might be, “What is the best way to engage family members
in services for Spanish-speaking clients with mental health issues?”; (2) Summarize what you have
read in your research studies: the actual intervention and how it was tested–the research questions
or  hypotheses,  the  methods  used,  the  sample,  measures  used,  and  the  outcomes.  Discuss  any
limitations or problems with the studies as well (in other words, how strong is the “evidence”?);
(3) Discuss how these interventions are either currently being offered at your agency or how they
might or might not be beneficial to your agency. This is another way to discuss the Implications
of the studies; (4) Provide a short summary at the end, tying all the information together.
