Abstract

|
|
Objectives: The purpose of this study is to provide basic data for developing services suitable for the characteristics of cognitive assistance graders by monitoring the use of day care centers.
Methods: In this study, frequency analysis and paired t-test were conducted using a survey conducted before and after the use of the services.
Results: ‘Cognitive training’ and ‘Art therapy’ were the most frequent cognitive activity programs implemented, but they did not operate specialized programs for each dementia severity. In addition, day care centers presented difficulties such as a lack of manuals for operating cognitive activity programs. The rate of satisfaction with the service use of cognitive-assistance graders and willingness to continue using the service was high. It was found that they additionally hoped for mobility support necessary for going out and health care services by nurses. After using day care centers, there was little change in cognitive function, depression, and health-related quality of life of cognitive assistance graders.
Conclusions: In order to develop a program suitable for the characteristics of cognitive assistance graders, it is necessary to develop a manual and provide professional training for workers in day care centers.
