Life-support advisers (L.S.A) were stationed at all the public apartments which we chose to research. 45 L.S.A were requested to choose those who would be most co-operative to assist in our research However, 7 L.S.A withdrew from our research because they couldn't handle dealing with those who were suffering from dementia The remaining 38 L.S.A explained to the elderly the method and purpose of our interview, to receive their approval. 18 nurses visited their homes to do the interviews, Initially 190 elderly were selected to be interviewed, but 38 withdrew, leaving only 152 to be interviewed.
