Topic: Health services, long-term care and technology
People living with dementia (PLWD) have voiced a desire to remain in their home environment as long as possible; unfortunately, there is limited integrated person-and family-centered community support. To examine the need for tailored supports for PLWD and their family caregivers (caregiving dyad), a meeting was conducted in Spring 2020. Thirty key provincial stakeholders with diversity in geographic location, employer and/or organization, range of roles, and family representatives participated in the meeting. Stakeholders identified a series of gaps, including: (a) systemic gaps; (b) gaps between communities of practice; (c) underserved populations; (d) program content and delivery gaps; and (e) PLWD and family caregiver support gaps. With input from stakeholders, we highlighted the need for consistent resources for the caregiving dyad that are flexible, timely, and accessible, which are embedded in the community and led by qualified and trained staff.

How this study scored 41/100
Published in a peer-reviewed journal. Scored zero for study design, sample size, effect reported, studied in people and randomised / blinded because the record does not state it. We have no data on journal's citation record, times cited, citations per year, impact for its field and year, cited by studies here, still being cited, senior author's track record, institution's track record, multi-centre collaboration and free to read, so those were left out: it earned 23 of the 56 points we could judge it on, which is 41 out of 100.
