Making People Part of the Solution
The Centre for Education and Research on Aging and Health, Lakehead University
The Centre for Education and Research on Aging and Health at Lakehead University conducts leading research, from early stage dementia to long-term care. This research is facilitated by a partnership with St. Joseph's Care Group, a world-class health care organization offering a full continuum of dementia care services. A unique feature of the research is the engagement of participants as collaborators, co-researchers and agents of social change. ADI2011 TV looks at how this work empowers people with dementia and their partners in care to generate knowledge that will guide policy and practice in self-management and palliative care.
