โญ๏ธ Another @PriDemProject paper in @BMJ_Open โญ๏ธ Intervention to improve dementia support was feasible and acceptable, as were our evaluation methods. Inclusion of people with dementia in research - accessibility and relationship building are key. ๐Ÿ‘‡bmjopen.bmj.com/content/14/7โ€ฆ

Interesting talk from Emily Spencer @PriDemProject at #33AEC. Great to see the project was so impactful in increasing the number of GP #dementia care plan reviews & improvements in what was in them. Although terrible that the baseline was only 37% when itโ€™s been a requirement for many years

An interesting & comprehensive read - this month even better as there's an article on ILC's research on healthy ageing in Japan - and how Japan might learn lessons from the UK, for example about #DementiaCare from @alzheimerssoc funded @PriDemProject - see pages 54 to 55

New blog ๐Ÿ“ข from PriDem researchers on strategies we used to include people living with dementia in our research. Feel free to share any tips you've used in your own research that we missed! #DementiaActionWeek @sgriffiths_6

Just 2% of people living with dementia are registered with Join Dementia Research, which matches people to dementia studies in the UK. How do we include people living with dementia in research? #DementiaActionWeek @dem_researcher @UCL_PCPH @NIHRresearch dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uโ€ฆ
