This program addresses dementia and driving cessation, a significant life event for people with dementia and challenge in primary care. We will translate an evidence-based driving cessation intervention into a telehealth model and implement it in a national cRCT. Expectations are that drivers with dementia will make independent decisions about stopping driving, however interventions are urgently needed to support people with dementia, their families and GPs to manage the challenges.

该计划涉及痴呆症和驾驶停止，这是痴呆症患者的重大生活事件，也是初级保健的挑战。我们将把基于证据的驾驶停止干预转化为远程医疗模式，并在国家cRCT中实施。预计患有痴呆症的司机将独立决定停止驾驶，但迫切需要干预措施来支持痴呆症患者，他们的家人和全科医生应对挑战。
