Latinos experience disparities in Alzheimer's disease (AD) knowledge. The aim of this study was to explore the feasibility of a 45-minute culturally-tailored AD knowledge presentation for professionals serving the Latino community and Latinos served by Latino community organizations. One-session AD knowledge lunch-and-learn events were conducted with 40 professionals and 37 served Latinos. Participants received a pre-post survey including questions on satisfaction, a subjective AD knowledge question and a 14 item objective AD knowledge questionnaire. Professionals (54.3%) and served Latinos (94.6%) reported the session as being very enjoyable and increased in objective AD knowledge (2.1 and 2.5 units, < .001) and subjective knowledge (1.1 and 1.7 units; < .001). : A brief in-person culturally-tailored session of AD education increases short-term AD knowledge and is perceived as interesting and useful among professionals serving the Latino community and Latinos served by Latino community organizations.
拉丁裔在阿尔茨海默病(AD)知识方面存在差异。本研究旨在探讨为服务拉丁裔社区的专业人士和拉丁裔社区组织服务的拉丁裔提供 45 分钟的文化适应性 AD 知识介绍的可行性。 与 40 名专业人士和 37 名服务拉丁裔人士进行了一次 AD 知识午餐和学习活动。参与者接受了一项包括满意度、主观 AD 知识问题和 14 项客观 AD 知识问卷问题在内的预-后调查。 专业人士(54.3%)和服务的拉丁裔(94.6%)表示该课程非常有趣,并在客观 AD 知识(2.1 和 2.5 个单位, < .001)和主观知识(1.1 和 1.7 个单位; < .001)方面有所提高。:一次简短的面对面文化适应性 AD 教育课程可在短期内增加 AD 知识,并且在为拉丁裔社区服务的专业人士和拉丁裔社区组织服务的拉丁裔中被认为有趣且有用。
