Using participatory approaches in the development of a digital care assessment for family caregivers of people with dementia

Participatory approaches are increasingly used in technology development research to improve care and support for people with dementia and their caregivers. People with lived experience are able to provide valuable contributions and insights into their needs which can increase acceptance and use of interventions. Dementia family caregiving is associated with high burden. To increase time‐efficiency and to ensure prompt service provision, our aim was to develop a digitally supported unmet needs assessment to better identify and manage care and support needs of family dementia caregivers.
