摘要
Health professionals working with a person suffering from dementia have to face with considerable communicational and relational difficulties. Therefore, training programs focused on the cognitive or medical aspects of the disease may not be sufficient to deal with the complexity of this condition. Starting from the contributions of Kitwood (1997) and the approach of Bender (2003), this study aims to discuss an alternative paradigm to dementia-care, providing suggestions about the daily care work of health professionals. Some expressive and narrative activities are presented in order to facilitate an effective relationship between operators and patients. (C) 2013 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd. Selection and/or peer-review under responsibility of Academic World Education and Research Center.
