Abstract

|
|
|
Cognitive rehabilitation refers to the rehabilitation of people with cognitive impairment. Several types of cognition-focused interventions have been described, which include cognitive training, cognitive stimulation, and cognitive rehabilitation. Patients with dementia suffer from diverse cognitive-related problems including memory impairment and from non-cognitive-related problems such as dysphagia, dysregulation of voiding and defecation, and musculoskeletal problems. Cognitive and non-cognitive-related problems affect the dementia patient's ability to live well. It is time to re-think that people living with dementia have the right to attain and maintain maximum independence, with the assistance of comprehensive rehabilitation services. Cognitive rehabilitation should use a goal-oriented, problem-based, individualized approach to facilitate improved management of functional disability for people with dementia.
