A Web-Based Decision Aid for Caregivers of Persons With Dementia With Firearm Access (Safe at Home Study): Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

In the United States, an estimated 33%-60% of people with ADRD have a firearm in the home [4,5], and 38% of ADRD caregivers identify firearms as an issue to address [4]. Approximately one-third of older Americans (≥65 years) own a gun [6]; yet in a large sample of older firearm owners, only one-fifth reported having a plan for securing, removing, or transferring firearms if they could not handle them safely [7].
