| Annotation | A Chinese Dementia Specialist Education Program (CDSEP) was launched in the Greater Boston Area to educate Chinese American health care providers who lacked adequate dementia education and services. This programme raised dementia awareness in Chinese American communities. The ten-month follow-up survey documented that the 16 graduates helped more than 70 families and held 76 workshops and formal and informal discussions reaching 400 people. The CDSEP demonstrates that a "train the trainer" model is an effective approach. (KJ/RH). |
