Public ISBD [article]  inThe British Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol.79 Issue 12 (Décembre 2016) . - p. 762-767 Titre : Cognitive stimulation therapy (CST) for people with dementia in practice: An observational study Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Amy Streater ; Aimee Spector ; Elisa Aguirre ; Martin Orrell Année de publication : 2016 Article en page(s) : p. 762-767 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : démence  programme de stimulation cognitive Résumé : Introduction The delivery of cognitive stimulation as a cognitive based psychosocial intervention for people with mild to moderate dementia is supported in the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence guidelines. There is a strong evidence base for its effectiveness in providing improvements in cognition and quality of life for people with dementia. However, less is known about its delivery and its impact using outcome measures when used in practice. Methods A 1-year observational study was conducted, which measured the cognition and quality of life of 89 people with dementia living in care homes and the community and were in receipt of cognitive stimulation therapy and a maintenance programme as part of their usual care in practice. Results A paired sample T-test demonstrated a significant improvement in cognition. Quality of life remained unchanged for people with mild to moderate dementia. Conclusions This study reports promising findings with demonstrated benefits for people with dementia and strengthens the evidence base supporting its use in routine care. However, attention should be given to the level of cognitive impairment of attendees. This research is relevant to the field of occupational therapy as the profession has knowledge of using psychosocial interventions and a commitment to evidence-based practice.

Cognitive stimulation therapy for people with dementia in practice: A service evaluation / Amy Streater in The British Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol.79 N°9 (September 2016)

Public ISBD [article]  inThe British Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol.79 N°9 (September 2016) . - p. 574-580 Titre : Cognitive stimulation therapy for people with dementia in practice: A service evaluation Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Amy Streater ; Elisa Aguirre ; Aimee Spector ; Martin Orrell Année de publication : 2016 Article en page(s) : p. 574-580 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : démence  stimulation cognitive  évaluation Résumé : Introduction Cognitive stimulation therapy is a well-recognised evidence-based cognitive psychosocial intervention for people with mild to moderate dementia. Despite increased use of the programme, little is known about its implementation in practice. Method A service evaluation of care home staff that received cognitive stimulation therapy training was conducted, and on-going support to deliver the programme in practice was provided. Outcome measures collected at baseline and 6 month follow up included sense of competence, learning transfer, dementia knowledge, and approaches to dementia. Attendance records were also collected. Results Ten out of 12 care homes attempted to deliver the cognitive stimulation therapy programme after receiving training and support. Overall, a high number of sessions were delivered. In addition, the staff members demonstrated significant improvements in positive approaches to dementia care and sense of competence. Conclusions This article reports encouraging findings of training and outreach support with demonstrated improvements in staff outcomes and successful implementation of the cognitive stimulation therapy programme. These results support the current evidence base supporting the use of cognitive stimulation therapy in routine care. This is relevant to occupational therapy as the profession plays a crucial part in the implementation of psychosocial interventions for dementia in practice.
