Project Title: Annual Fitness Appraisal Database Tracking of Modifiable Risk Factors for Cognitive Impairment in Older Adults

This project will expand capabilities of an annual fitness appraisal database (specifically the Healthy Active Living Database, called HAroLD) to develop a solution that identifies modifiable risk factors for dementia and creates a “risk profile.” This will form the foundation for point-of-care workers to coach individuals on how to reduce risk factors for developing dementia using resources available in their community.
