The overall objective of the proposed investigation is to assess the feasibility of a pilot embedded pragmatic cluster randomized controlled trial (ePCT) to reduce the duration of antibiotic therapy and number of antibiotic prescriptions among nursing home residents with AD/ADRD. With the support of three independently owned and operated nursing homes that are unaffiliated with an academic medical center, we have developed the multicomponent intervention, eCARE-ID (Electronic Consultation for AD/ADRD Residents Experiencing Infectious Diseases). eCARE-ID consists of three components: 1) Tele-ID video clinical consultation services for nursing home residents; 2) electronic consultation (e-consultation) services for healthcare personnel at participating nursing homes; and 3) Tele-ID video antibiotic stewardship services for healthcare personnel including pharmacists at participating nursing homes.
