Dear Dr Fiest,
My name is Christina Aggar, I am leading a group of clinicians in Australia investigating the integration of carers as partners in the prevention of delirium. We have developed a number of resources to support carers and are currently trialing an interactive web-based Toolkit.
I wonder if you would be interested in touching base to discuss our mutual interest.
Kind regards
Christina Aggar
