Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to clarify what kinds of the way and contents of information promote the early help-seeking behavior by the family of elderly people with dementia. As a result of interview, it was hard to catch the general contents as a thing of own family. But the information which could be compared to or considered as their families' thing (ex. a real case story, concrete content, word of mouth) and the information in accord with the family's situation which was from reached out professionals were useful to get help-seeking behavior. To make the information useful, the support for the family to think and decide by themselves will be also needed.
