- Abstract
Cognitive aspects of individuals with dementia are needed to be strengthened in order to maintain their quality of life. Thus there is a need for psychosocial practices to enhance cognitive activity in dementia. Cognition enhancer interventions are used as an aid to pharmacological treatment. These interventions could be classified into four groups as behavior, emotion, perception and stimulation-oriented approaches. Interventions and practices including such cognitive enhancer activities should be generalized, and medical staff should select the most appropriate method for elder people to apply. All psychosocial practices that enhance cognitive activity could be practiced by any educated medical staff including psychiatrists, psychiatric nurse specialists, psychologists, social workers or occupational therapists.
