ABSTRACT
As the average life span is extended, the elderly population has increased, as has the incidence of certain diseases such as dementia. In addition, an increased number of studies linking diabetes with accelerated cognitive impairment and dementia, have been reported. At this time, providing social service information for dementia patients and using it for diabetes education and counseling is needed. Dementia puts a heavy psychosocial and financial burden on patients and their families, and has a negative influence on life satisfaction of the entire family. Various social services for dementia patients the government offered would help to lessen such a burden.
