Abstract

Reminiscence therapy is the most widely used among non-drug treatments for dementia in Japan. However, it is a type of complementary and alternative therapy, nurses generally don't have much knowledge. Using a reminiscence therapy, we intend to get the suggestions about how to talk with older adults with dementia.
