Original: @AIGMcLennan, @LouiseCastiillo & @DrThomasHadjist compared tools assessing pain in people with dementia to tools developed for a different population
— All tools showed satisfactory psychometric properties
FREE:
Lab HQP @AIGMcLennan presenting some of his research results at #CAG_2024 @cagacg supporting the idea that lay people (e.g., informal caregivers) may be able to use observational pain assessment tools for people with dementia under professional guidance
