The focus of nursing care for people with this condition is to observe symptoms and assess key features that differ from typical depression in order to lead to prompt medical care and mitigate serious consequences. This article aims to review and recommend nursing guidelines for people with cognitive impairment from depression. In this article, the critical nursing care that relies on the scientific and artistic process of nursing in order to be able to practice systematic nursing in accordance with the psychiatric nursing process, as well as the promotion of nursing care for people with degenerative brain disease using knowledge are reviewed. To promote, prevent, care, and rehabilitate people with cognitive impairment from depression to better health.
