A planning committee of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine will host a complimentary workshop on May 23rd and 24th that examines mechanisms and organizational behavior change initiatives to improve care and better support the needs of people living with Alzheimer’s Disease and Alzheimer’s Disease-Related Dementias. The workshop will feature invited presentations and panel discussions on possible health outcomes and care processes that are highly responsive to hospital organizational behavioral changes such as:

• Healthcare-associated infections
• In-facility safety 
• Mentation management services 
• Care transitions
• Person-centered care

The planning committee will develop the agenda for the workshop sessions, select and invite speakers and discussants, and moderate the discussions. This will be a hybrid workshop, meaning that it will take place in person and be webcast live. Proceedings of the presentations and discussions at the workshop will be prepared by a designated rapporteur in accordance with institutional guidelines.
