RESEARCH PROFILE
Living with dementia and caring for a person with dementia can be difficult because of the decline in cognition and because of behaviour changes. Non-pharmacological interventions can be supportive to age-in-place. In my PhD, we focus on supporting the lived experiences at home of people with dementia, by optimizing sleep and lifting the care burden.
