Описание

The American Journal of Occupational Therapy; Bethesda Vol. 71, Iss. 5,  (Sep/Oct 2017): 1-10. [...]a 2014 Alzheimer's Association telephone survey of 3,102 respondents revealed that the three primary reasons family members or other caregivers decided to provide care included wanting to keep the person with dementia (PWD) at home, living close to the PWD, and feeling obligated as a spouse or partner (Alzheimer's Association, 2016). [...]reference lists from articles included in the systematic reviews were examined for potential articles, and selected journals were hand searched to ensure that all appropriate articles were included. [...]insufficient evidence from 1 Level III study (Gitlin, Jacobs, & Earland, 2010) showed the translation of the Environmental Skill-building Program (ESP), now named Skills2Care®, into home-based clinical practice was moderately successful, with 70% adoption by occupational therapists and close to 60% of eligible caregivers participating in the program. [...]evaluating longer term effectiveness of interventions over a 1-yr or greater time frame is needed because most studies evaluate outcomes only immediately after the intervention is completed.
