Description
Jingjing Gao, Eric Jones, Louis Brown, Benjamin Radford, Jiaming Liang, and Jack Tsai wrote a 2026 paper on internet access among people who care for someone with dementia in the United States. Online portals let caregivers read records, message doctors, and manage medicines. But access and skill vary by place, and dementia care is heavy work that could benefit most.
The team compared dementia caregivers with other caregivers in a national survey. They weighed age, health, income, and whether the home was urban or rural. The study asks who is left offline and where they live. Closing those gaps matters, since health systems keep moving services online and assume families can follow.
