Changes in the Quality of Life of People With Dementia Living in Care Homes
Alzheimer Disease & Associated Disorders , 09/08/09
Hoe J et al. – A reduction in residents' QoL was predicted by lower baseline depression and anxiety symptoms, higher baseline QoL ratings, and an increase in depressive symptoms and cognitive deterioration at follow–up. Although QoL does not necessarily diminish as dementia progresses, it is strongly influenced by the person with dementia's mood. Improvement in cognition and mood may lead to increased QoL.
