Poster Project on Alzheimer's Disease
While working on my project, there were a couple resources that I used. I utilized online databases like Bryant and Stratton college virtual library, PubMed, Google Scholar and the National Institute on Aging’s Alzheimer’s Disease Education and referral Center (ADEAR) database to search for relevant research papers clinical trials, and scholarly articles. Even though I did not use most of these platforms for my project, they offered a wealth of information with the latest advancements in Alzheimer’s research. This research would benefit me in the future as a medical assistant in the workplace. By staying well-informed about Alzheimer’s disease, I can enhance patient care. Understanding the latest research on Alzheimer’s disease enables me to provide informed and compassionate care to patients with this condition. I can better comprehend the disease progression, its impact on cognitive and physical functions, and tailor my approach to meet the unique needs of each patient. Moreover, armed with up-to-date knowledge, I can educate and support families and caregivers of Alzheimer’s patients. Sharing relevant research findings and evident-based information can help them make informed decisions about treatment options, lifestyle modifications, and available resources.
