If only a short time, I may be advised to present highlights and to give handouts of my presentation. Visual images also facilitate the learning. I will need to build in time for question and discussions. With each audience, I should consider their specific interests and structure the speech accordingly. With non-health laypeople, for instance, I can structure it to the challenges of dealing with relations with dementia and the kind of characteristics they should look for in caregivers as well s ways that can give them less stress and give their patients more comfort in dealing with them. I should also present it in a creative way in order to make it more interesting.

When approaching journals (and there are a plethora of nursing journals potentially interested in my research), I would be advised to carefully study requirements and, if unsure, to query my solicitation describing topic area and study in order to determine whether this is a good match. I can also review past copies...

These include patient education materials, such as brochures, audiovisuals, computer software, or web sites. Information should be presented in a visually appealing, clearly understand way.
Posters at conferences should be large, visual displays that summarize aspects of the study in a clear dramatic manner

In short, there are a variety of ways - I'm sure I haven't exhausted all of the m -- with which I can inform people about how to better care for people with dementia and with which I can disseminate the findings of my study.
