To conduct a pilot randomized controlled trial to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of the Homebound Elderly People Psychotherapeutic Intervention (HEPPI) among homebound older adults with mild cognitive impairment and depressive or anxious symptomatology. Fifty-one participants were randomly assigned to the intervention group or to the wait-list control group and completed baseline and post-intervention assessments. Feasibility and acceptability were the primary outcomes. Secondary outcomes included changes in cognitive function, depressive and anxiety symptoms, subjective memory complaints, functional status, and quality of life. Intervention effects were assessed both at a group level (two-way mixed ANOVA) and at an individual level (Reliable Change Index). The HEPPI was a feasible and acceptable non-pharmacological intervention. Compared to the wait-list control group, the intervention group showed significant improvement in cognitive, emotional, and functional domains at post-intervention. Differences between groups in the distributions by clinical change categories were observed. Results provide evidence of the HEPPI’s feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy in increasing the cognitive and functional performance of homebound older adults and reducing their psychological symptomatology. Home-delivered cognitive-emotional interventions may be a promising and acceptable mental health approach for homebound older adults, improving their cognitive and emotional functioning.
