Description

This conference collection gathers abstracts from the twelfth Canadian Conference on Dementia, held in 2026. Dozens of teams report work on care, safety, and support for people living with dementia. One featured study tested remote monitoring devices in patients' homes. Caregivers and clinicians gave feedback through surveys, interviews, and groups. The goal was safer aging in place at lower cost.

Providers and caregivers rated the devices positively for safety management. Satisfaction ran high among those who used them well. Findings fed a practical guide for bringing monitoring into routine care. Other abstracts range across the meeting's themes. Responsive behaviors, crisis prevention, and caregiver stress recur throughout. The volume shows a field leaning toward home-based, tech-aided care. Full texts of the talks are not included, only the abstracts.
