What drives Latino/a/e/x/ individuals to seek care for memory complaints: A Cross‐Sectional Study
The results of our study show that for Latino/a/e/x individuals, the decision to seek care is directly related to age, family approval, and the desire to learn the cause of the symptoms. Future research should explore what factors affect the ease of access to services as their inclusion in standard care could incentivize timely access to healthcare services.
