Abstract

Introduction: One of the main health issues in the elderly is the increased risk of dementia. Good health and well-being in older adults prevent dementia. Dementia not only affects the individual who experiences it, but also the family as the main support system. The family has a strategic role in preventing or delaying the onset of dementia symptoms through family empowerment. This study aims to examine the relationship between family empowerment and preventive behaviors related to dementia among older adults.
