Description

Nadia Mirjan and Aleksandra Zecevic map assistive technologies onto the stages of Alzheimer's disease, asking which tools fit which phase. More people living with Alzheimer's want to stay home with dignity, and technology can delay moves into care homes. But abilities and needs change as the disease advances, so one device rarely fits all stages.

Their scoping review gathers studies from four major databases and sorts tools by the seven stages of the Global Deterioration Scale. The map shows where support is rich and where gaps remain for people and their care partners. Planners can match purchases and services to the stage a person is actually in.
