The purpose of this study was to find out the care needs of caregivers of people with dementia according to the characteristics of Incheon Metropolitan City. A survey was conducted on 500 caregivers of people with dementia living in Incheon, and the results were analyzed using the SPSS program. As a result of the analysis, among the 24 types of dementia patients and caregivers support services, the need for 'a hospital that can be used in case of an emergency' was the highest, and when the 24 support services were reclassified into 7 areas and analyzed, the need for the ‘Information support’ area was the highest. In addition, the needs for dementia care varies by characteristics of Incheon(by dementia severity, by urban?island region, by Local Dementia Center registration?non-registration), indicating that it is necessary to establish an Incheon dementia management system in accordance with the characteristics of Incheon and the dementia care needs. So, the results of this study can be used as evidence when establishing policies related to dementia support services to be provided to dementia patients and their caregivers living in Incheon.
