This study describes the initial contact of 255 potential participants, recruitment of 63 participants, and retention of 57 participants from three geriatric Hoarding Disorder (HD) studies. Patients with HD were easily recruited from the community, primarily through the use of clinician referrals and posted flyers, as evidenced by steady patient flow despite lack of compensation for participation. Contrary to treatment outcomes of late life mood and anxiety disorders, geriatric HD patients are largely retained in clinical research treatment studies. Results demonstrate that older adults with HD can be engaged in treatment. Participants often needed the study staff to provide substantial support, including informal motivational interviewing and problem solving, in scheduling and attending the initial visit.
