Abstract

Technology can support the delivery of care and improve the lives of people living with dementia. However, despite a substantial body of evidence demonstrating the benefits and opportunities afforded by technology, gaps remain in how technology and technology ethics are addressed in dementia care education. Here we discuss disparities in current educational programming and highlight the ethical challenges arising from underdeveloped knowledge exchange about dementia care technology. We put forward that for technology to be ethically deployed and maximized to improve outcomes, it must be embedded into dementia education programs and made widely accessible to the caregiver community.
