ABSTRACT

Objective: The effect of seniledementia patients receiving continuity care on patients' psychological status and self-care ability. Methods: Seventy-four cases of Alzheimer's patients in our hospital were studied, randomly divided into conventional group and study group, and different nursing care was given to the two groups of patients. Results: Under the continuous care measures, the scores of patients in the study group: HAMA, HAMD, and PSMS scores were better than those in the conventional group (P < 0.05); the satisfaction rate of this nursing care in the study group was 97.30%, which was higher than that of the conventional group 86.49% (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The social function of seniledementia patients can be improved under the continuous care measures, which have the value of clinical promotion and application.
