Dementia is the greatest single contributor to the burden of disability for older people. Challenging behaviours are common and associated with reduced quality of life for the person with dementia and the caregiver. The Tailored Activities Program, delivered by occupational therapists, is novel. It targets the capacity of the person with dementia and provides a systematic way to match both capacity and personal interest to activity. We will conduct a randomized trial to test its effectiveness.

痴呆症是造成老年人残疾负担的最大因素。挑战行为很常见，并与痴呆症患者和照顾者的生活质量下降有关。由职业治疗师提供的量身定制的活动计划是新颖的。它的目标是痴呆症患者的能力，并提供一种系统的方法，使能力和个人兴趣与活动相匹配。我们将进行随机试验，以测试其有效性。
