Informal Support for People with Alzheimer's Disease and Related D
Informal Support for People With Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias in Rural Uganda: A Qualitative Study Pia Ngoma Nankinga ( [email protected] ) Mbarara University of Science and Technology Samuel Maling Maling Mbarara University of Science and Technology Zeina Chemali Havard Medical School Edith K Wakida Mbarara University of Science and Technology Celestino Obua Mbarara University of Science and Technology Elialilia S Okello Makerere University Research Keywords: Informal support, dementia and rural communities Posted Date: December 17th, 2019 DOI: https://doi.org/10.21203/rs.2.19063/v1 License: This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License. Read Full License Page 1/16 Abstract Background: The generation of people getting older has become a public health concern worldwide. People aged 65 and above are the most at risk for Alzheimer’s disease which is associated with physical and behavioral changes. This nurtures informal support needs for people living with dementia where their families together with other community members are the core providers of day to day care for them in the rural setting. Despite global concern around this issue, information is still lacking on informal support delivered to these people with dementia. Objective: Our study aimed at establishing the nature of informal support provided for people with dementia (PWDs) and its perceived usefulness in rural communities in South Western Uganda. Methods: This was a qualitative study that adopted a descriptive design and conducted among 22 caregivers and 8 opinion leaders in rural communities of Kabale, Mbarara and Ibanda districts in South Western Uganda. The study included dementia caregivers who had been in that role for a period of at least six months and opinion leaders in the community. -

This report, for the first time, coincides with the Government financial year. 2. From the financial point of view the year has again been one of considerable difficulty since, as a result of the Economy Commission Report, it was necessary to restrict the money available for recurrent expenditure to the same level as the previous year. Although an additional sum was available to cover normal increases in salaries, the general effect was that many economies had to in all be made grades of staff; some important vacancies could not be filled, and expansion was out of the question. -

The Gender Equality Seal for Private Entreprises in Uganda
The Gender Equality Seal for Private Entreprises in Uganda. A certification program that enables businesses to increase productivity, profitability and partnerships through: Employee performance schemes that reduce gender-gaps at the work place. Innovations for gender-appropriate product design and customer services. Networking with global companies that support the sustainable development goals. What the Gender Equality Seal is about: The Gender Equality Seal (GES) promotes investment in systems that integrate gender equality into the work environment and business strategies. It is a learning and certification programme, supported by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), to help businesses achieve Gender Equality, which is Goal Five of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals. (SDGs). The SDGs (global goals), were signed up by world leaders in September 2015 at the United Nations General Assembly in New York. Private companies that get the Gender Equality Seal certification attain sustainable business growth, which in turn leads to sustainable development. Why getting the Seal is good for private companies: The Gender Equality Seal certification programme provides private companies a mechanism to level the playing field for both women and men at the work place. It also helps companies to make their human resource management systems equitable and more gender sensitive. Working to achieve the Gender Equality Seal helps management of private companies understand how their decisions affect female staff compared to male colleagues; how gender-pay-gaps come about and how to work out a work-life-balance for employees. ...Compliments Certification of Government Institutions. For Government, the Gender Equality Seal complements the Gender and Equity Certificate that is used to assess the gender responsiveness of sector plans and budgets, as provided for by the Public Finance Management Act (PFM 2014). -
