Improving Detection and management of dEmentia in older Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders attending Primary Care (IDEA-PC)

该项目将为初级保健专业人员共同设计、实施和评估一个全国性的文化响应型护理模式，以优化老年土著和托雷斯海峡岛民澳大利亚人痴呆症和认知障碍的检测和管理。痴呆症的发病率是其他社区的三倍，这项研究旨在优化老年痴呆症患者、他们的家庭和社区在整个护理过程中的福祉。

This project will co-design, implement and evaluate a nationwide culturally responsive model of care for primary care professionals to optimise the detection and management of dementia and cognitive impairment in older Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians. Rates of dementia are triple those of other communities and this research aims to optimise the well- being for older people with dementia, their families and communities throughout their journey of care.
