[The ONDRI Study @ONDRISTUDY]

It’s #MentalIllnessAwarenessWeek! Our study on neurological and psychiatric comorbidity among adults in ONT found those w/neurological disorders more likely to also have a psychiatric disorder (and vice versa) https://t.co/bP3lAvNAOO #anxietydisorder #dementia #parkinsons #stroke

Our @ONDRISTUDY research found large declines in emergency department visits for both urgent and non-urgent conditions among people with dementia living in the community during the first two waves of the COVID-19 pandemic. See below!

Key implications = Lower emergency department use raises concern about potentially urgent conditions that did not receive care. Understanding the long-term impacts of these reductions requires further study.

Our recent @ONDRISTUDY Aim 4 work explored how having a history of a neurological or psychiatric condition can place a person at an increased risk of a second condition. Check out highlighted results ⬇
