[Study] Research Participants Needed - Dementia Stigma in Hospitals and Its Impact on Care

The study explores dementia stigma in hospitals and its potential impact on the quality of care for people living with dementia. To capture these perspectives, the research team will be conducting a confidential one-hour virtual interview with people living with dementia and caregivers of people living with dementia about how hospital processes and interactions shape care experiences. All participants will be compensated $40 for their time. We are interested in hearing from people living with dementia across Canada.

This project has been approved by the University of Ottawa Research Ethics Board (H-07-25-11741).

Your support would be invaluable in reaching participants whose voices are essential to improving hospital care for people living with dementia.
