Objectives: To examine the circumstances and needs of older adults who were "kinless," defined as having no living spouse or children, when they developed dementia.
Methods: We conducted a secondary analysis of information from the Adult Changes in Thought study. Among 848 participants diagnosed with dementia between 1994 and 2016, we identified 64 who had no living spouse or child at dementia onset.
