Dementia is a neurological condition that is estimated to effect over 55 million people globally. For people living with dementia, maintaining meaningful activity adds to quality of life, maintaining purpose and routine. The evidence for activity interventions that were home based, and did not focus on physical exercise, was unclear for persons living with dementia. A systematic review by Tan et al. 2022 consolidated the evidence of effectiveness for such interventions, for both the person living with dementia and their carer. This commentary critically appraises the review and discusses the findings for health and social care professionals in dementia care.
