Cultural Resilience and Indigenous Strategies in Dementia Caregiving: Family Caregiver Insights from Uganda

Caregivers in Uganda exhibit resilience and ingenuity in managing ADRD symptoms using culturally rooted practices. This study highlights the potential for integrating these strategies into formal dementia care frameworks to enhance global outcomes. Further research should explore the scalability, effectiveness, and adaptability of these practices to inform equitable, sustainable dementia care policies, particularly in low-resource settings.

Abstract

Caregivers in Uganda exhibit resilience and ingenuity in managing ADRD symptoms using culturally rooted practices. This study highlights the potential for integrating these strategies into formal dementia care frameworks to enhance global outcomes. Further research should explore the scalability, effectiveness, and adaptability of these practices to inform equitable, sustainable dementia care policies, particularly in low-resource settings.
