Project Summary/Abstract We propose to develop an innovative tool to aid caregivers of persons with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and AD- related dementias (ADRD) in obtaining guidance for appropriate financial management and legal planning. Financial management is one of the two most cited sources of significant stress among caregivers. Legal planning, while often enjoined with financial management, presents additional challenges and needs. Unfortunately, only a small percentage of caregivers for Persons with Dementia (PwD) report successfully completing needed planning processes, which include the execution of accompanying documents. In addition to the difficulties in completing these processes, PwD are dramatically more vulnerable to fraud, scam, and engaging in inappropriately risky financial transactions, all of which additionally increase financial risks to caregivers. The proposed tool will strongly leverage user needs and barriers in the design and development process, which when combined with cutting-edge technology, will help ensure that the resulting product will overcome impediments to effective utilization that have plagued prior approaches. The value of the proposed project lies in its potential to improve the health, well-being and effectiveness of individuals caring for persons with dementia. Such improvements are hypothesized to ultimately improve the health of patients. The objective of this project is to develop and commercially deploy the proposed tool.

项目总结/摘要 我们建议开发一种创新工具，以帮助阿尔茨海默病（AD）和AD患者的护理人员， 在获得适当的财务管理和法律的规划指导方面， 财务管理是照顾者最常提到的两个重大压力来源之一。法律的 规划虽然往往与财务管理相结合，但也带来了额外的挑战和需求。 不幸的是，只有一小部分痴呆症患者（PwD）的护理人员成功报告 完成所需的规划过程，包括执行随附文件。此外 在完成这些过程中的困难，普华永道更容易受到欺诈，诈骗， 从事风险不适当的金融交易，所有这些都增加了金融风险， 照顾者拟议的工具将在设计和开发中充分利用用户需求和障碍 过程，当与尖端技术相结合时，将有助于确保最终产品将 克服了困扰现有方法的有效利用的障碍。建议的价值 该项目的重点在于它有可能改善个人的健康、福祉和效率， 患有痴呆症这种改善被假设为最终改善患者的健康。的 该项目的目标是开发和商业化部署拟议的工具。
