Methods for the involvement of people living with dementia in research focused on the built environment: a protocol for a scoping review.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

The positive influence of a well-designed built environment in dementia-specific care has been known for several years. Many studies focusing on the built environment have captured the perspectives of people living with dementia. However, it remains unclear to what degree and with which methods these individuals have been actively involved in research especially when attempting to understand their perspective. The planned scoping review aims to (1) synthesise methods and results from research about the built environment according to active involvement of people living with dementia and (2) describe facilitators and barriers to this active involvement to capture their perspectives in research.
