Research Abstract	In this research, the questions for professional caregivers were “If you were suffered from dementia and went into the institution, what kind of service would you want.” We investigate the conditions that ‘demented elderly’ want institutions to prepare. Their preference were clarified when they are FAST4 (mild stage of dementia)and FAST6 (severe stage of dementia).
