Your link to outlook.live doesn't work for me.
I think maybe you are referring to the paper at the following link, co-authored by Michael Ellenbogen. The paper is officially titled "Moving beyond tokenism: Sustaining engagement of persons living with dementia in identifying emergency research priorities"0 -
LBC83, I believe you have to pay to view the paper. Am I correct?

Yes. In my internet searching, it seems there is no free pdf version of the paper available on-line. If you click on the "Wiley Full Text Article" link at the above URL, there is a $15 fee for 48-hour on-line access to the paper, $25 for longer term on-line access, and $59 to download a pdf of the paper.
You can read for free at the link a 1-sentence Introduction, 2-sentence Objective, 1-sentence explanation of the Methods used in the paper, 1-sentence summary of Results, and a 1-sentence Conclusion.My take-a-way from this limited information is that this paper is recommending that Emergency Departments conducting research should proactively reach out to work with people living with dementia to include their perspectives, experiences, and priorities.
Clicking on the "Related" tab on the right side of the page, you can see a list of other papers on this topic. Titles include "Clinical Care of Persons with Dementia in the Emergency Department: A Review of the Literature and Agenda for Research" and "Emergency department communication with diverse caregivers and persons living with dementia: A qualitative study". There is also a fee to access these other papers.0
