This results in care partners taking on more responsibilities for completing activities of daily living and an increase in their burden level. Care partners of people living with dementia (PLWD) have higher rates of co-morbid health conditions. Higher levels of functional impairment are associated with an increased risk of institutionalization for the PLWD. Support services may be put in place after an initial assessment but following changes over time is left to the care partner. Identifying level of burden and when additional supports are required can be difficult for an already overwhelmed care partner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>PI:<\/strong> Neil Thomas<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"publications\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Publications<\/h2>\n\n\n\n    \n\n\n                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    \n\n\n\n<section class=\"w-screen px-6 cu-section cu-section--white cu-section--cards ml-offset-center md:px-8 lg:px-14\" data-attributes=\"&#x7B;&quot;numberOfPosts&quot;&#x3A;12,&quot;showImages&quot;&#x3A;false,&quot;moreButton&quot;&#x3A;&quot;loadmore&quot;,&quot;blockType&quot;&#x3A;&quot;cards&quot;,&quot;contentType&quot;&#x3A;&quot;post&quot;,&quot;currentPage&quot;&#x3A;1,&quot;blockBackground&quot;&#x3A;&quot;white&quot;,&quot;numberOfColumns&quot;&#x3A;3,&quot;showDates&quot;&#x3A;true,&quot;showTimeToRead&quot;&#x3A;true,&quot;showExcerpts&quot;&#x3A;true,&quot;showFilter&quot;&#x3A;false,&quot;taxName&quot;&#x3A;&quot;category&quot;,&quot;categories&quot;&#x3A;&quot;146&quot;,&quot;tags&quot;&#x3A;&quot;&quot;&#x7D;\" data-page=\"2\">\n    <div class=\"space-y-6 cu-max-w-child-5xl  md:space-y-10 cu-prose-first-last\">\n\n                \n                \n        <div class=\"cu-loading hidden text-center mx-auto h-6 w-6 animate-spin rounded-full border-4 border-solid border-current border-r-transparent align-[-0.125em] motion-reduce:animate-[spin_1.5s_linear_infinite]\" role=\"status\">\n    <span class=\"!absolute !-m-px !h-px !w-px !overflow-hidden !whitespace-nowrap !border-0 !p-0 ![clip:rect(0,0,0,0)]\">\n        Loading&#8230;\n    <\/span>\n<\/div>\n\n                                        \n        <p class=\"cu-no-posts hidden\">\n            No\n            category\n\n            posts are available.\n        <\/p>\n\n                <div class=\"cu-column cu-component not-contained mx-auto grid max-w-5xl md:grid-cols-3 gap-6 md:gap-10\">\n                        \n                    \n\n<div class=\"not-prose cu-card rounded-lg @container md:max-w-xl flex flex-col gap-3 bg-white shadow-lg shadow-cu-black-100 group duration-300 ease-in hover:scale-[1.02] hover:shadow-cu-black-200\">\n\n    \n    \n        <header class=\"flex flex-col gap-3  px-6 first:mt-6\">\n        <div class=\"flex flex-row w-full gap-1\">\n                        <time datetime=\"2025-12-22T19:00:00-05:00\" class=\"block italic text-sm text-cu-black-600\">\n        December 23, 2025\n    <\/time>\n\n                    <\/div>        \n        \n    \n    <h2 class=\"line-clamp-3 text-lg font-semibold text-cu-black @sm:md:text-xl leading-6 @sm:md:leading-8\">\n        B.
