1. The former project, which commenced in 1981, provided intensive support to dementia sufferers living with one informal carer, by specially recruited and trained Aides (see Flynn, 1982).
2. It was anticipated that generating the action and control samples in the way described above would produce matched samples of approximately 50 dementia sufferers in each sample.
3. However, most research on home care problems had understandably focused on the dementia sufferers" informal supporters.
4. Most people dread the possibility of dementia; many believe it is inevitable.
5. The aims of the project, which are discussed in more detail in Chapter Two, were to provide flexible "packages" of supplementary home support to dementia sufferers, in addition to the statutory health and social services and the non-statutory services normally available, and to test whether, given this service, it is possible cost-effectively to sustain such people at home for longer than is usually possible with support only from existing forms of health and social service; to explore the circumstances in which the dementia sufferers could cost-effectively be sustained at home, and to examine the circumstances in which it was not possible to sustain them; that is, to identify the limits to care.
6. Living alone, although a very real care problem for many dementia sufferers because of the need some of them have for continual safeguarding, might not in itself be a problem for all if they had sons or (more realistically) daughters living nearby who could help with their care.
7. However, as stated above, nine out of the 11 in the action sample who said at second interview that they continued to prefer home care gave much more unequivocal answers; stating not merely that they would not like the dementia sufferer to be in institutional care, or that they would feel guilty about him or her going into residential care (as did the carers of Miss Wainwright and Mrs Nolan), but also that home was where they envisaged and wanted the sufferer to remain.
8. Sonny (Timothy Botoms, focus of the earlier film) is afflicted with dementia and Duane's banker is facing indictment for malpractice.
9. A friend of 30 years standing who had previously cared for a woman with senile dementia described how:
10. A 50 per cent preference for residential care might be considered high, but it should be remembered that the dementia sufferers in this sample were mainly already in the advanced stages of their illness, and also that only 3l per cent of the principal carers were spouses, and it is among spouses that the highest preference for home care appears (see Gilhooly, 1986).
11. In general the difficulties can be categorised as those which were hard because they were unpleasant tasks in themselves (eg dealing with sickness or incontinence, washing soiled clothes); those which were hard because of the dementia sufferer's behaviour or characteristics (eg he or she was uncooperative, aggressive, heavy), and those which were hard because of features of the carer's life or characteristics (eg the journey to the dementia sufferer's home was a long one, the carer's spouse disliked her helping, she had no washing machine, she found it hard to manage caring tasks as well as her work).
12. 91,000 people have dementia in Scotland and although many will die of other causes, vastly more will die of dementia than the few hundred dying of Aids.
13. In order to collect information about the dementia sufferer's informal or family carers it was decided to interview them in depth, using a semi-structured questionnaire (see Appendix I).
