Stress in the Volunteer Caregiver: Human-Centric Technology Can Support Both Caregivers and People with Dementia.

Conclusion: Since professional caregivers have access to technological resources that our home-based caregivers lack, one might logically conclude that we should transfer technology used by professionals to those with dementia. However, great caution needs to be in place before we take that step. Successful technology should address the human experience as home-based caregivers try to use new technologies. Human-centric technology addresses the needs of both people with dementia and the home-based caregiver. PMID: 32466618 [PubMed - in process]
