My dissertation is entitled “Informal caregivers to older persons with dementia in eight European countries: strain and support in the care”. The overall purpose of the study is to investigate the strain on, and the support given to, next of kin involved in the care of older people with dementia at home in eight European countries , from diagnosis to end of life.
I obtained my degree in Nursing at Lund University in 1987. I then worked as a reg. nurse at the thoracic - and neurosurgical clinics in Lund, Skåne University Hospital. Since 2004 I have been working with persons with dementia within the Municipality of Lund and at the Memory clinic in Lund, Skåne University Hospital. I have also worked as a project assistant at Lund University in the European project RightTimePlaceCare.
