Abstract:
Improvements in healthcare and nutrition have led to increased life expectancies for people around the world, and a growing need to support the larger numbers of older people living with chronic and age-related health conditions. Although the use of digital technologies is increasingly proposed for health and social care solutions, in practice the designers of these technologies are ill equipped to actively engage older people and in particular people with syndromes such as dementia. An examination of previous work on design for older people, and people with dementia, suggests that poor design

Abstract:
Background: Research has demonstrated that adults with a moderate dementia can benefit from the introduction of a memory book to improve the quality of their conversational content. However, previous investigations in the area have focussed on low-tech alternative and augmentative communication aids. Few studies have investigated how digital media can be incorporated into therapy when working with people living with dementia. The present study addresses this gap in the literature by investigating the effects of a digital memory book on the quality and quantity of conversations in adults with m

Abstract:
Community dwelling people living with dementia are often at risk of experiencing reduced Quality of Life (QoL) as a result of, but not restricted to, social exclusion, isolation and malignant social positioning. It is therefore imperative that QoL is protected, supported and maintained to ensure that people can live well with dementia. However, whilst it is acknowledged that post diagnostic dementia support is integral for the maintenance of QoL, less is known about the sort of interventions that can promote, support and maintain it, within a community setting.

Abstract:
This PhD thesis addresses the challenges of social inclusion for older men (65+ years) with dementia in rural England. This applied study used an individually-tailored male-only Technological Initiative, drawing on commercially available computer game technology (e.g. iPad, Nintendo Wii and Microsoft Kinect) to deliver person-centred activities to older men with dementia residing in three rural areas of England over a nine week period. Participatory Action Research (PAR) formed the framework for the conduct of the research. Multiple qualitative methods were employed to explore the perceived im

There are many treatments for dementia, which are divided into drug treatment and non-drug treatment. Non-medication treatment is the most common with nostalgic treatment. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to design a digital storytelling system-Restor for dementia patients. The nostalgic treatment stimulates the brain's ability to think, improve its depression, enhance its well- being, increase social interaction w

Based on the principles of Participatory Video (Milne et al 2012), the study used digital storytelling and co-production techniques to create short films with 10 participants in a Leeds dementia care facility. Choice of images and narrative content were decided by the participants, who were aged between 76 and 99 years, and had lived in Leeds for most if not all of their lives.

Abstract:
yes<br>Digital storytelling using a standard software package such as Photostory 3 can work to impose a linear format on a slideshow of visual images. By contrast the forms of self-expression adopted by people who have a diagnosis of dementia can often be digressive, circuitous and rhizomatic, corresponding more closely to Deleuze and Guattari’s concept of ‘lines of flight’. Preparatory to completing digital stories with ten people with a diagnosis of dementia who were living in a long-term social care environment, we used both linear (visual narrative) and non-linear (collaging) storyboardi
