Description
Abstract: Older adults with dementia frequently encounter (often insurmountable) difficulties when trying to use everyday products and tools that are required to complete activities of daily living (ADL). When coupled with the substantial amount of care this population requires, it is important to support both people with dementia and caregivers through universal design practices to enable greater access to products by the dementia population.
