Abstract:
The environment plays an essential role in the functioning and care of older persons, particularly those with Alzheimer's disease. This article describes the characteristics of the environment that affect the functioning of persons with Alzheimer's disease and the interaction between the person and environment. Assessment and interventions based on environmental characteristics and person-environment interaction are identified.
