Impact of Dementia-Related Psychosis on Patients and Caregivers: The Treatment Imperative.

Dag Aarsland.   

Abstract

​​​​​​​​ Behavioral and psychological symptoms are common in patients with dementia. Especially troublesome are the delusions and hallucinations of dementia-related psychosis (DRP) due to their negative impact on both patients and their carers and family members. This report reviews the impact of DRP on patients and carers, assessment tools, and coping strategies and techniques to help care partners manage DRP. © Copyright 2020 Physicians Postgraduate Press, Inc.
