The purpose of this study was to verify the effectiveness of cognitive rehabilitation programs based on storytelling for people with dementia at home and to provide basic data for the use and distribution of programs within the community. The study was conducted by face-to-face interview at home on 33 people with dementia from June 2020 to October 2021, once a day for 60 min, 5 times a week for a total of 6 weeks. Cognitive function, depression, balance function, self-esteem, and quality of life were measured before and after the intervention. Comparison before and after cognitive rehabilitation program based on storytelling revealed that cognitive function (p<.001) and quality of life (p<.05) significantly improved, whereas depression (p<.001) significantly deteriorated. In conclusion, a cognitive rehabilitation program based on storytelling is a medium that promotes voluntary participation of people with dementia and is effective in maintaining cognitive function and healthy life of people with dementia at home by inducing positive interactions between the collaborator and participants.
