Abstract
Dementia is one of humanity’s worst nightmares. No one wants to age cognitively compromised and live in an environment where there is no support and tools needed to help the mentally ill person. Individuals with dementia experience various daily difficulties in communication, memory, learning capability, judgment, and orientation, hindering individual’s performance. Activities for recovery play a significant role in alleviating dementia risk and improving individuals’ capability of daily life execution. Social sciences supported dementia care interception is a core aspect of the biopsychosocial models aimed to present, restore, and augment the functioning of people with dementia in the face of declines in memory, which interfere with everyday activities, making independent living difficult. This chapter characterizes dementia and recovery functions by applying social sciences informed collaborative dementia care models that involve multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary teams working together to provide dementia care to people with dementia. The chapter also discusses the role and function of community-based recovery programs for managing stress in both caregivers and people with dementia, by which care is at the individualized and community levels with close monitoring and support of function recovery improvement of people with dementia.
