My current research focuses on understanding the social needs of immigrant older adults with dementia and their caregivers, specifically within the context of Portugal. The intial phase of the project involves a scoping review to identify the (un)met social needs and how they evolve as dementia progresses. The next stage involves interviews to gain insights into the (un)met social needs and potential solutions, from the perspectives of immigrant older adults with dementia and their caregivers residing in Portugal. <\/p>
