Description
Beth Fields, writing alone in 2025, adapts a hospital assessment tool for the care partners of people living with dementia. Such partners often feel shut out of hospital care and unready for the tasks that follow a stay.
The tool, called CHAT, was built to include and prepare family and friends, but had not been shaped for dementia care. Two design teams, one of clinicians and one of care partners, met over video in five sessions to suggest changes. Seven clinicians and five care partners took part. Themes were pulled fast from the session recordings between rounds. The paper reports the adapted tool and how happy each team was with it.
