The number of people living with dementia who experience continence issues is likely to be underestimated because many people avoid reporting them as a result of embarrassment and stigma, or because they think incontinence is an inevitable symptom of dementia and that nothing can be done about it. Increased awareness and understanding of the relationship between dementia and incontinence is needed so that nurses can persuade people living with dementia and their family carers to discuss continence issues, assess their needs and provide support. There are several practical strategies that can reduce the incidence of incontinence, counter its negative effects and promote continence in people living with dementia.</p>","PeriodicalId":94162,"journal":{"name":"Nursing older people","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138292596","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Participants were registered mental health nurses with experience of caring for people with delirium superimposed on dementia within a 24-hour care environment, including an NHS mental health foundation trust and care homes.

Overall, participants showed a preference for aesthetic ways of knowing, rather than the use of formal assessment tools or scores. Participants experienced caring for people with delirium superimposed on dementia by valuing the person and concentrating on their behaviours, responses and personality, thus enabling them to anticipate and/or recognise potential triggers, precipitating factors and any changes in behaviours.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The ways in which mental health nurses know the people they care for influences their care delivery.

This article captures the authors' experiences and reflections regarding their implementation of a music therapy intervention in a dementia inpatient unit. It explores some of the considerations and learning points gained from their experience, including the practicalities around engaging individuals and staff, the use of space, the timing of sessions, available resources and the potential benefits for patients, family members and the unit as a whole. The authors' experiences suggest that the benefits of music therapy appear to be transferable to the dementia inpatient setting.</p>","PeriodicalId":94162,"journal":{"name":"Nursing older people","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41109617","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Another approach is deprescribing, which can improve health outcomes for patients and may have financial benefits for healthcare organisations, but can also present various challenges.
