1.About the effect of the home day care
The behavior of the life of the elderly with dementia live in the nursing home was observed at the house where home care was being carried out. The effect that smiles increased was seen at the home care. The matter that it felt a sense of the season, too, was given to it as one of the effect to walk to the house.
2.About one person bathing at the nursing home
Listening comprehension to the staff member was done at the nursing home where one person bating was carrying out, and that subject was explained. An advantage was that careful care could be done. A subject was the point which the staff whom it cared for only for the bathing was necessary for.
3.About the lounge of the care staff
