Abstract

In rapid growth of aging society, prevalence of dementia continues to rise. One of the key challenges for dementia is Behavioral Psychological Symptoms of Dementia (BPSD). Our previous research showed that a training of caregiver reduces BPSD in nursing home. However, historically the skill of caregivers was considered to depend on individual experience, and development of standardized training system for professional caregivers is strongly needed. The multimodal comprehensive care—Humanitude—is a French-origin methodology for vulnerable elderlies focusing on their perception, emotion and oral communication. It emphasizes eye contact, verbal communication and gentle, secure touch during interaction with patients and assisting for vertical position and walk. In this article, philosophy and details of the methodology are described.
