As a Certified Dementia Practitioner and the Founder of&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.pbaileyenterprises.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">P Bailey Enterprises<\/a>, which provides business solutions for organizations doing work around Alzheimer&#8217;s and caregiving, she is assisting with community outreach for HSC on its historic Healthy &amp; Aging Brain Study, previously known as the Black Alzheimer\u2019s Brain&nbsp;Study. The first-of-its-kind research study leverages state-of-the-art imaging and robotics to analyze brain&nbsp;protein markers. Led by preeminent researchers, the study does not require injections nor the administration of prescription drugs; instead, participants undergo comprehensive interviews,&nbsp;functional exams, blood draw, a brain MRI, and a PET scan, and earn compensation for their&nbsp;time. The study is funded by a grant from the National Institute on Aging, part of the National&nbsp;Institutes of Health, which emphasizes the need for such research.&nbsp;Through targeted, culturally-sensitive outreach,&nbsp;HSC\u2019s team of doctors, scientists, and educators is working to build continued confidence in the&nbsp;groundbreaking study.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no other study like this in America, and yet the correlation between Alzheimer&#8217;s Disease and mental health is continually overlooked. Brain health needs to be considered in mental health, but we also need to look at the risk and concern of depression, anxiety, and more mental health concerns that come with an Alzheimer&#8217;s diagnosis. Pat can talk about the study, its effect on both patients and caretakers, and speak to a myriad of health disparities that surround&nbsp;research into Alzheimer\u2019s disease, including 1 in 2 Black families which will be affected in a lifetime, nearly 3 million American women living with&nbsp;Alzheimer\u2019s, and over 10 million women in America providing care and support for someone&nbsp;with Alzheimer\u2019s disease.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Patricia Bailey is a champion in the fight against&nbsp;Alzheimer&#8217;s disease.
