CARLSBAD, Calif. – July 11, 2019 – Ceresti Health, a digital health company focused on improving cost and quality outcomes for people living with dementia, today announced that company researchers will present two posters at the upcoming Alzheimer’s Association International Conference 2019 on Monday, July 15, 2019 from 9:30 am – 4:15 pm at the Los Angeles Convention Center, South Hall HG. 

Kevin Liang, PhD, Chief Innovation Officer at Ceresti Health will present the following posters:

  • Initial Findings from a Technology-Enabled Dementia Care Program in a Polychronic Patient Population Living at Home (Poster #32523)  
  • Implications of Novel Disease Progression Framework on Population Health Strategies for Patients Living with Alzheimer’s Disease  (Poster #33017)

“Ceresti is focused on improving care for persons living with dementia, while we wait for a cure,” said Dirk Soenksen, CEO and co-founder of Ceresti Health. “We spent 5 years developing a comprehensive approach and service model that employs technology and remote coaches to empower family caregivers (e.g., spouses and adult children) to be more active members of the care team for persons living with dementia.”

“The first poster details initial findings from a pilot study that shows how the combination of (i) personalized caregiver education, coaching and support and (ii) daily remote monitoring of the patient-caregiver dyad reduces medical costs for the person living with dementia at home,” explains Soenksen. “The second poster details our novel disease progression framework which aligns medical cost savings with better patient care and is a central theme throughout our intervention.“
