PubMed databases were searched using key terms relating to "long-term care" and "occupational therapy".
Results: 8 studies were included, RCT(n=1) 12.5%, CCT(n=3) 37.5%, and OD(n=4) 50.0% in the review. In the all of included studies, the ADL traing was the biggest part of occupational therapy. The using rate was 20.0% of ADL training, 10.0% of Quality of Life(QOL), perception of life, cognition, perception, oral hygien, behavior control, feeding and music therapy.
