Enhancing Dementia Education and Cognitive Screening in A Haitian Population: A Faith-based Approach.
Ethnically diverse Americans experience 1.8-2.5 times higher risk of developing Alzheimer's disease than Whites (Mayeda, et al., 2016), yet cognitive screening is not routinely conducted among Haitian American communities. Dementia risk awareness is beneficial for improving management of chronic illness and behaviors that impact risk of cognitive decline. A quasiexperimental paired samples t-test design was employed to test the effectiveness of an educational intervention among 50 older faith- based Haitian adults using the Basic Knowledge of Alzheimer's Disease (BKAD) scale, cognitive screening using the Cognitive State Test (COST), and referrals to a local memory/wellness center. A significant difference was seen in knowledge scores: pre-test (M = 18.5, SD = 3.12) and post-test (M = 23.1, SD = 2.42); conditions t(41.9) = -9.5, p = .000. All of those who volunteered for screening completed follow-up neuropsychological evaluations. Outreach to faith-based settings is suggested as an avenue for improving dementia knowledge and detection.
期刊介绍：
This innovative publication focuses on health care issues relevant to all aspects of community practice -- home health care, visiting nursing services, clinics, hospices, education, and public health administration. Well-researched articles provide practical and up-to-date information to aid the nurse who must frequently make decisions and solve problems without the back-up support systems available in the hospital. The journal is a forum for community health professionals to share their experience and expertise with others in the field.
