The Alzheimer Society Research Portal connects researchers with Canadians looking to participate in research studies. On this website, find active studies that you can participate in to help advance research on dementia.
We want to determine if a nutrition questionnaire (SCREEN) works well to identify nutrition challenges for older adults with diagnosed memory problems, cognitive impairment or dementia when completed by themselves, or by a care partner on behalf of their cared for person.
You may be eligible if you are:
• 55 years or older
• Read/speak English
• Live within 45km of Waterloo, Guelph or London.
AND are an:
• Older adult with diagnosed memory problems, cognitive impairment or dementia with a care partner who either lives with you, or who is in daily contact with you and would be able to support reporting of their eating behaviours
• If living in a retirement home, the older adult must have lived in their home for at least 3 months and receive 2 or more meals each day from their retirement home
Caregivers of people living with dementia have direct experience of how the dementia is progressing. They are essential in evaluating the real-world benefits of treatment and making decisions to keep the person at home or consider different levels of care. The aim of this study is to develop a new CAregiver REported and weighted Dementia outcome measure (CARED).
