Abstract

This enhancement seeks to generate knowledge about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on care for persons with dementia and their families. The project will leverage work with its stakeholder advisory council, which includes people living with dementia, family caregivers, healthcare clinicians, and community-based organizations such as memory centers and the Alzheimer's Association, to better understand the needs and priorities of these stakeholders related to COVID-19. The project team will develop a prioritized list of research questions around palliative care, while examining questions and outcomes related to COVID-19 from the perspectives represented on the council and their wider networks of constituents.
