Residents were then randomly assigned to an \u2018early\u2019 or \u2018late\u2019 intervention group and observed for four weeks. Interventions encompassed psychosocial strategies, nursing approaches, psychotropic medications and management of pain. Outcome measures included the frequency and severity of disruptive behaviours and assessments of change by senior nursing home staff.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>While improvements in behaviour were noted in both groups from the outset of observations, pointing to a powerful Hawthorne effect, consultancies were associated with a modest but statistically significant decrease in challenging behaviours.
