Vision: Dementia is more common among African American and Hispanic
elders as compared with Caucasian Americans elders. Most of the care
of ethnic elders with dementia is conducted by family and informal
caregivers. But due to a variety of psychosocial and cultural factors,
ethnic elders are less likely than Caucasian elders to have access
to formal comprehensive diagnostic, treatment and management resources
for dementia care. The primary vision of Ethnic Elders Care is to
increase public awareness of about dementia among ethnic elders and
optimize the quality of life of family caregivers and ethnic elders
with Alzheimer’s disease and related disorders. Our goal is to
improve access to culturally sensitive and effective care for ethnic
elders with Alzheimer’s and related disorders by promoting awareness
and education among caregivers and health professionals We want to
increase public awareness among health care providers and the general
public about Alzheimer’s disease and related disorders among
ethnic elders in the United States and position the Ethnic Elders
Care as the leading clearinghouse for dementia, ethnicity and caregiving.
