SUMMARY:Addressing Food Insecurity for People Living Alone with Dementia
DESCRIPTION:National data indicate that nearly one quarter of older Americans living alone have dementia. This population faces numerous challenges\, including food insecurity\, which is often worsened by cognitive impairment\, limited social support\, and physical isolation. Traditional senior meal delivery programs are not always designed to address the unique needs of individuals with cognitive impairment\, who may have difficulty safely storing\, preparing\, or cooking meals. \nThis webinar will provide insight into an innovative\, volunteer-based food delivery model created to better support seniors living alone with dementia. Participants will learn about common barriers to food-based services experienced by individuals living alone with dementia\, the key components of an effective food delivery service model for people living alone with dementia\, and program evaluation best practices for measuring the impact of services for this population. \nAdditional information about this webinar and the registration form can be found here. \nPlease note: \n\nNational Alzheimer’s and Dementia Resource Center (NADRC) webinars are free of charge and open to the public.\nNADRC webinars are recorded and will be available for viewing at https://nadrc.acl.gov.\nPre-registration is required to attend the live webinars.\nClosed captioning is available during the live event and is included in the recording for all NADRC webinars.
