32/100

✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 32 out of 100. Clinical safety

Topic: Risk, prevention and care in population studies

We created and hosted a dementia workshop for first and second year medical students in 2023 and 2024 aimed at increasing interest and passion for empathic dementia care. The workshop significantly increased students' comfort with dementia care topics and knowledge of dementia and delirium. We will continue this workshop annually with ongoing improvements based on student feedback.

Key findings

The workshop significantly increased students' comfort with dementia care topics and knowledge of dementia and delirium.

Why it matters

A workshop for first- and second-year medical students significantly increased their comfort with dementia care topics and their knowledge of dementia and delirium. This is an educational intervention for future doctors, not a treatment or prevention study for patients.
