The Koori Dementia Care Project (KDCP): Final Report 2013

The Koori Dementia Care Project (KDCP) built on the work of the Koori Growing Old Well Study (KGOWS), a National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) funded project. The KDCP aimed to translate the knowledge gained from the KGOWS into meaningful care and practice for six regional and urban Aboriginal communities. This final report is a summary of the aims, objectives, outcomes and key deliverables of the KDCP and the activities undertaken in 2012 and 2013, at the completion of the project term. Furthermore, a report on each community that the project worked within is provided, and critical success factors, as well as challenges and barriers that need to be addressed for the future, are identified.
