The Dementia Isolation Toolkit was developed to support residents of long-term care during periods of isolation, as well as to address moral distress in long-term care home staff. In this presentation, we will speak about how this tool has been used during the pandemic, barriers and facilitators to its use, and some preliminary research on its impact.
