Description

Delivered a presentation "Informing Best-Practice and Compassionate Care: Reviewing interventions to Reduce Distress of People Living with Dementia (PLwD) in Care Homes", where I shared the findings of a scoping review which explored the pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions that currently exist to reduce distress of people living with dementia, in residential care settings. In this, I also share our findings on what literature considers as 'distress', and how said-distress is being measured.
