Part of the Alois Alzheimer Center's mission is to
contribute to the understanding of Alzheimer's Disease. It is our hope
that the new information and knowledge we provide will help existing
and future individuals touched by Alzheimer's disease and their families.
The Alois Alzheimer Center acts as a resource for individuals, families,
communities and future health care professionals by offering interaction
with experienced staff and a clinical setting for students.
The Alois Alzheimer Center provides an environment
which coordinates and conducts research that will improve the care of
individuals with Alzheimer's disease and dementia. Local and national
research projects are continuously in process, ranging from measuring
the effects of specific programs to experimental drug treatments. Research
participation is completely voluntary and conducted only with prior approval.
Students
are provided with opportunities for education and research through long-standing
affiliations with regional colleges including the world-class medical
school at the University of Cincinnati. Through these partnerships we
hope to increase knowledge of the disease and develop new treatments. Educational
involvement stimulates and motivates our staff, and ensures state-of-the-art
care for families and residents. The information generated is shared
nationally and internationally to enhance care for individuals
with dementia worldwide.
