This randomized controlled trial aims to recruit a total of 320 dyads composed by persons with dementia living in community settings and their primary informal caregivers. In the intervention group, persons with dementia will have a home monitoring kit installed in the household while participants in the control group will receive their usual care. The kit includes home leaving sensors, smoke and water leak sensors, bed sensors as well as automatic lights that monitor the individual's behavior. Alerts (text message and/or phone call) will be sent to the caregiver if anything unusual occurs. All study participants will receive three home visits by project administrators that have received project specific training in order to harmonize data collection. These will take place at enrollment and 3 and 12 months following installation of the home kits. At every home visit, a standardized questionnaire will be administered to all study participants to assess their health, quality of life and resource utilization. The primary outcome of this trial is the amount of informal care support provided by primary informal caregivers to the Person with Dementia.
