Why participate in
the Safe at Home Study?
Keeping your loved ones with dementia safe at home is challenging. Behavioral changes that come with Alzheimer’s Disease and related dementias (ADRD) can increase the injury risk from in-home firearms.
Researchers at the University of Colorado have developed a new resource to help dementia caregivers and are conducting a study to measure its helpfulness.
Adult caregivers, who are not paid to provide care, may be eligible to participate if the person they are caring for has been diagnosed with dementia or Alzheimer’s disease, does not live in a care facility, and has access to one or more firearms.
Caregivers who participate in the study will be compensated up to $180.
