Sponsor's own description
This research aims to evaluate the ability of individual reminiscence therapy (RT), using a simple reminiscence format, to improve the overall cognitive function, memory, emotional status and quality of life (QoL) of older adults with neurocognitive disorders (NCD) attending social care and support services. A multicentre randomised controlled trial (RCT) is proposed in Azores archipelago with repeated measures (pre-intervention, post-intervention and follow-up). Intervention group will hold 26 individual RT sessions, twice a week for 13 weeks. Control group participants will maintain their treatment as usual. Make a subsample analysis of the main clinical diagnoses, and compare the results of sample and subsample with a previous study that had the same intervention protocol.
