7. Study Summary
Lay Summary | The number of people living with dementia is increasing worldwide, including in South Korea. Wandering is a common behavioral problem among individuals living with dementia. Wandering behavior among community-residing older adults with dementia not only increases the risk of getting lost but also increases caregiver burden and stress among family caregivers. The purpose of this study is to apply shoe-attached location-tracking devices to individuals living with dementia to examine their feasibility and effectiveness for persons living with dementia and their family caregivers. This study is a multi-method study that includes both quantitative and qualitative approaches. |
