Engaging with historic environments through Virtual Reality to promote positive wellbeing among people with Dementia

痴呆症是无法治愈的和退行性的，药物有助于减缓这一过程，但需要更多的非药物干预来帮助促进健康的幸福感。正如下面进一步讨论的那样，患有痴呆症的人非常容易受到人格、身份和自主性减弱的影响。因此，本研究旨在通过使用虚拟现实技术和遗产的多学科痴呆护理方法，增加促进痴呆症患者福祉的方法。

Dementia is incurable and degenerative, medication helps to slow the process down, but more is needed from non-pharmacological intervention to help promote a healthy sense of wellbeing. As is further discussed below, persons living with dementia are highly susceptible to a diminishment of personhood, identity, and autonomy. This study therefore aims to add to the methods of promoting wellbeing in persons with dementia, via a multidisciplinary approach to dementia care using Virtual Reality technology and heritage.
