Amelia Robson - Is age just a number? Working with patients from a different generation

Amelia Robson, narrates her blog written for the Dementia Researcher website.

In her first blog for Dementia Researcher, Amelia shares her experiences as a young researcher working with people living with dementia, highlighting the importance of building rapport through genuine conversation and shared interests. She discusses the challenges of connecting with older generations and offers practical tips on engaging patients, such as complimenting their home décor and discussing common hobbies like birdwatching and stargazing. Amelia's insights emphasise the significance of a positive, open approach to foster trust and improve the research experience for both patients and researchers.
