Enhancing quality of life (QoL) is the central goal of care providers for clients with dementia. A QoL tool identifies areas of need, enabling strategies to be planned and evaluated accordingly. Dementia is highly prevalent in Aboriginal Australians. There is no QoL tool for Aboriginal Australians living with dementia. This project will develop and test a QoL tool with Aboriginal Australians living with dementia or other cognitive impairment. The factors affecting QoL will also be identified.

提高生活质量（QoL）是痴呆症患者护理提供者的中心目标。生活质量工具确定了需要的领域，从而能够相应地规划和评估战略。痴呆症在澳大利亚原住民中非常普遍。没有针对患有痴呆症的澳大利亚土著居民的生活质量工具。该项目将为患有痴呆症或其他认知障碍的澳大利亚土著人开发和测试生活质量工具。还将确定影响QoL的因素。
