    Elderly residents, even with cognitive impairments, generally understand and react to relocation. Preparation strategies should be tailored, excluding those with severe cognitive decline, for successful transitions.

    Area of Science:

    • Gerontology
    • Cognitive Psychology
    • Healthcare Management

    Background:

    • Relocation of elderly individuals between residential care facilities can cause distress.
    • Effective preparation can mitigate negative impacts and ensure successful transitions.
    • The feasibility of preparation for residents with cognitive deficits remains unclear.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the awareness and emotional responses of elderly residents with cognitive deficits regarding relocation.
    • To determine the extent to which preparation is feasible for this population.

    Main Methods:

    • Qualitative study involving elderly residents facing relocation.
    • Assessment of cognitive status and awareness of impending move.
    • Exploration of residents' feelings and perceptions related to relocation.

    Main Results:

    • Residents, except those with severe cognitive deterioration, generally maintained awareness of the upcoming relocation.
    • Appropriate emotional responses were reported by most residents.
    • Cognitive status significantly influenced awareness and emotional processing of relocation.

    Conclusions:

    • Preparation for relocation is feasible for elderly residents with mild to moderate cognitive deficits.
    • Tailored preparation strategies are necessary to accommodate varying cognitive abilities.
    • Further research should focus on developing specific preparation interventions for this demographic.
