Dementia Education Needs Assessment
The purpose of this tool is to assist professionals working in organizations that provide care to older persons with dementia to make decisions about continuing education programs related to dementia (Alzheimer Disease or related dementias – ADRD). This tool will assist organizations to support practice change and performance improvement through education. To this end, the tool will assist users to determine whether they need education, whether they are able to support practice change, and what educational opportunities are available to them. It is important to keep in mind that continuing education can take many forms – it can be informal such as ‘teaching in the moment’ opportunities and case-based learning, or it can be formal education initiatives (e.g., workshops). This tool focuses on formal education opportunities.
