It involves a comprehensive approach including psychological support, cognitive rehabilitation, memory enhancement, self-care training, and environmental modifications. Psychological interventions focus on personalized communication and emotional support, aiming to reduce negative emotions and improve trust in the healthcare team. Cognitive interventions include activities like painting, card recognition, and storytelling to enhance cognitive function. Memory interventions use personalized memory aids, and self-care interventions aim to improve daily living skills. The ward environment is adjusted to promote safety and comfort. This multi-faceted approach is designed to improve cognitive function, self-care abilities, and emotional well-being in AD patients.
