AnnotationThis short study of 22 older subjects with mild dementia or mild cognitive impairments in Hong Kong reports that telemedicine was a feasible and acceptable means of providing cognitive assessments and interventions. Promoting such a programme to other community settings would further enhance the accessibility of cognitive intervention (CI) and dementia services to the community. (RH).
