Abstract
Objectives: At the conclusion of this presentation, the learner will be able to:
- Describe the relationship between impaired sensory processing, maladaptive behaviors, and functional performance among individuals with dementia.
- Identify the evidence surrounding sensory-based interventions to increase functional participation and/or decrease maladaptive behaviors among individuals with dementia.
- Discuss the clinical implications of current evidence for occupational therapy practice within dementia care.
PICO: What is the evidence supporting the use of sensory-based interventions to reduce maladaptive behaviors and/or improve functional performance for adults with dementia?
