2017
The objective of this study was to clarify the
contents of “care that respects individuality” provided to elderly people with
dementia living in group homes as perceived by dementia carers qualified. We interviewed
21 dementia carers qualified
working at group homes in Prefecture A about the practical contents of and
their thoughts on “care that respects individuality”. The data obtained from the interviews were analyzed
using the modified grounded theory approach (M-GTA). As a result, 14 concepts
regarding the contents of “care
that respects individuality” provided to elderly people with dementia living in
group homes as perceived by dementia
carers qualified were generated in the
following 4 categories: “placing emphasis on the individual”, “respecting feelings”, “eliciting strengths”, and “close mutual relationship”.
