Assessing Needs: Toolkit for Dementia, Cognitive Health, and Caregiving

Dementia, cognitive health, and caregiving are not always included in community health needs assessments, leading to their absence in public health improvement and strategic plans. Learn about a tool from the Alzheimer’s Association and the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials (ASTHO) to help state, local, and territorial public health and aging officials conduct comprehensive needs assessments to identify unmet needs of older adults, scale up existing community strengths, and promote healthy aging. This webinar features an overview, discussion of health equity, and demonstration* of the Needs Assessment Toolkit for Dementia, Cognitive Health, and Caregiving.

*Excel tool demonstration begins at 9:43

Webinar originally broadcast on March 29, 2022 by the Alzheimer’s Association.
