Randomization
After completion of consent procedures and baseline data collection, a list of participant identification numbers is sent weekly to the data management team to be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either the MINT-TLC or HE group. This project has a hierarchical study design with each senior is nested within a senior center and participants are recruited at different times. Randomization is within the senior center. Patients are informed of the results of randomization by a research assistant (RA) in-person or by phone; at which time, the RA discusses the intervention/counseling session schedule, and answers any additional questions. Given the nature of the intervention, it is impossible to blind the RAs to the assigned condition.
