HOBSCOTCH (Home Based Self-management and Cognitive Training Changes lives) is a home-based
self-management program to treat cognitive symptoms and improve quality of life, while
minimizing the barriers of access to care. The program is based on Problem Solving Therapy

cognitive dysfunction and enhance quality of life.
HOBSCOTCH Phase II is a replication study of the original HOBSCOTCH study, designed to
translate the findings of HOBSCOTCH into a real world setting. This is a multi-center study,
with the HOBSCOTCH intervention being implemented at four epilepsy clinics in New England.
