65+ and taking 5 or more medications daily?
Closed Recruitment
Dementia , Fall Prevention, Parkinson's Disease, Other Older Adults, Stroke
We want to understand how medications affect daily life either positively or negatively. This includes things like: the ability to do activities you enjoy, and things you need to do like cooking or cleaning. We also want to explore how stopping a medication might have a positive or negative effect on daily life. Finally, we want to understand how well questionnaires can measure these things.
- After you express interest, we will contact you and ask you a few questions to see if you are eligible to participate. If you are eligible, they will explain more about the study and send you a consent form by email - If eligible, you will take part in an interview where we ask you questions about how medications impact your daily life and give feedback on a questionnaire that tries to measure aspects of enjoying and taking part in daily life
