Brief Summary

This is a clinical trial to test the effectiveness of current guideline for the care of older adults with Alzheimer's disease. The study focuses on the primary care setting using a nurse care manager to facilitate guideline-level care. We are hypothesizing that patients who receive guideline-level care will have fewer behavioral problems than those who receive the usual care provided in primary care settings
