Activities of Daily Living Performance in Persons With Dementia: Comparing Care Partners' and Clinicians' Appraisal and Associated Factors.

Introduction: Persons living with dementia require assistance in making day-to-day and health care decisions. Health care professionals select treatments based on the care partner (CP) report of the person's function; however, the accuracy of CPs' appraisal has received limited exploration.

Methods: Retrospective analyses of observational, programmatic data were performed across 161 dyads (CPs and persons with dementia) participating in an evidence-based, community-level dementia intervention program.
