Abstract

Dementia represents one of the most common neurodegenerative disorders in older adults with acquired cognitive and intellectual impairments caused by brain dysfunction. The incidence of dementia increases with age. As Thailand is now a fully aging society, the number of dementia patients has increased accordingly. It is necessary to recognize the importance of caring for dementia patients as it is a challenge for nurses. This article looks at the nurse’s role in evidence-based practice for the non-pharmacological therapy of people with dementia. This is an independent role within the scope of nursing in caring for people with dementia according to a holistic nursing process at different stages of therapy. It acts as a guide for continuing care that affects the good quality of life of people with dementia and their families.
