Patient\u2010centered care models show promise in reducing restraint use but are rarely implemented in routine practice. This project implemented CoCare\u2010CI, a clinical innovation to address behavioral symptoms in hospitalized older adults with cognitive impairment.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>CoCare\u2010CI was implemented on a 24\u2010bed ACE unit in a 128\u2010bed community hospital from January 2023 to August 2024 by a multidisciplinary team led by a geriatric nurse practitioner (GNP). CoCare\u2010CI emphasized (1) systematic screening and assessment of mentation, and (2) individualized management plans for delirium or dementia. Implementation followed a phased, cyclical approach with champions supporting process improvement. Baseline restraint data (January\u2013August 2023) were compared to intervention data (September 2023\u2013August 2024). Primary outcomes included physical and chemical restraint use; process measures included documentation rates of the Confusion Assessment Method (CAM), CAM\u2010Severity (CAM\u2010S), Six\u2010Item Cognitive Impairment Test (6CIT), and 4Ms checklist.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Among 949 patients (mean age 81.5\u2009years, 59% female, 80.6% White), 34.1% had cognitive impairment at baseline, including 22.6% with dementia and 11.5% with a significant 6CIT score (\u2265\u20098). Documentation rates improved for CAM (68%\u201386%), CAM\u2010S (0%\u201379%), 6CIT (0%\u201389%), and 4Ms checklist (0%\u201396%). Physical restraint use decreased from 4.3% to 0.7%, and chemical restraint use dropped from 7.6% to 2.3%. Most restraint use (84.2%, 16\/19) was deemed potentially avoidable, with root cause analysis revealing that 78.6% (11\/14) of patients with restraint orders had moderate to severe dementia with behavioral symptoms.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>CoCare\u2010CI is associated with reductions in reduced physical and chemical restraint use, demonstrating potential for dissemination within routine clinical practice.
