The purpose of this study was to determine if cognitive status, sleep and activity behaviors in adults with moderate dementia and stress levels of their caregivers changed after two months of participation in social adult day care. Seven participants, six females and one male between 75 to 96 years of age, and their caregivers were selected from new applicants to a social adult day care program. Day care participants resided at home with a primary caregiver who was a relative with an average age of 57.6 years and a range of 33 to 83 years of age.

520 $a The purpose of this study was to determine if cognitive status, sleep and activity behaviors in adults with moderate dementia and stress levels of their caregivers changed after two months of participation in social adult day care. Seven participants, six females and one male between 75 to 96 years of age, and their caregivers were selected from new applicants to a social adult day care program. Day care participants resided at home with a primary caregiver who was a relative with an average age of 57.6 years and a range of 33 to 83 years of age.
520 $a Using a hybrid research design, the variables of cognitive status, sleep and activity behaviors, and caregiver hassles were measured using the Mattis Dementia Rating Scale (MDRS) (Mattis, 1976), Sleep/Activity Behavior Log (O'Leary, 1991), Caregiver Hassles Scale (Kinney, 1989), adult day care participation logs, and caregiver interviews. Participants attended social adult day care, with an activity-based, therapeutic recreation model of programming, at least twice a week for two months.
520 $a In the majority of participants with dementia, cognitive status improved and ineffective behaviors at home decreased after two months of participation in social adult day care. Participants who began the study with a cognitive status level above the midpoint MDRS score for dementia showed improved cognitive status in all cases. Ineffective behaviors at home decreased after two months of adult day care participation. Although caregiver hassles declined slightly, one caregiver reported greatly reduced daily hassles while the majority of individual caregivers actually reported slightly higher daily hassles. Changes revealed in cognitive status during this study appear substantively meaningful and suggest more definitive findings through replication with a larger sample size.
520 $a Results were discussed in terms of the potential to use social adult day care programs and therapeutic recreation activities as an intervention to increase cognitive functioning in adults with moderate dementia and to assist with home based behavior management of adults with moderate dementia living in the community.
