Hong Kong Alzheimer's Disease Association
The Hong Kong Alzheimer's Disease Association (HKADA) Knowledge & Care website is a specialized, non-governmental public health and clinical support platform dedicated to dementia care, professional training, and public advocacy in Hong Kong. Founded in 1995 and affiliated with Alzheimer's Disease International (ADI), HKADA serves as a primary regional resource for evidence-based information on Alzheimer's disease and related neurocognitive disorders. The digital portal offers comprehensive clinical guidelines on early diagnostic screening, disease staging, pharmacological and non-pharmacological management, and behavioral symptom interventions tailored to the local Chinese population. It hosts standardized assessment toolkits, caregiver stress management frameworks, community day-care models, and specialized training materials for healthcare practitioners. The platform emphasizes multidisciplinary care strategies integrating geriatric medicine, occupational therapy, nursing, clinical psychology, and social work. Serving as an invaluable open educational resource, this portal delivers localized clinical guidance, public health statistics, and community-based intervention models for undergraduate and postgraduate students, geriatricians, occupational therapists, clinical psychologists, social workers, and healthcare policy planners studying neurocognitive disorders, eldercare service delivery, and dementia care policy in Hong Kong.
