This essay aims to raise awareness of the difficulties in diagnosing YOPD and the need for a personalised approach to care for women with YOPD. METHODS: Two professional women with YOPD (academic physiotherapist and practicing dentist) and a female neurologist (clinician academic) came together to wr…
The Right to Rehabilitation for People With Dementia
INTRODUCTION: People with dementia of all ages have a human right to equal access to quality health care.

Identifying Public Healthcare Priorities in Virtual Care for Older Adults
Stakeholders prioritised public health virtual care initiatives that are easy to adopt and address needs that are perceived to be more immediate (acute more so than chronic care). Virtual care initiatives that incorporate more technology and integrated elements are valued, but more information is needed to inform their potential scale-up
A Scalable Program for Improving Physical Activity in Older People with Dementia Including Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (Cald) Groups Who Receive Home Support
Home care clients with dementia/cognitive impairment are typically functionally dependent and physically inactive. We pilot-tested a co-designed physical exercise program for its feasibility, safety, adherence and potential for benefits on physical activity, physical function, healthcare use and falls. Trained community care support workers delivered a 12-week home exercise program to clients with dementia/cognitive impairment, once weekly for 15…
National survey of risk factors for non-communicable disease in Vietnam

The STEPS protocols can be utilized to provide aggregate data for valid between-population comparisons, but with important caveats identified
