Abstract |
Dementia is a syndrome that leads to the deterioration in memory, thinking and behavior as well as the ability to perform activities. The aim of this study is to explore ways of fulfilling the safety of persons with Dementia especially in Developing countries. And that is expected to be done by applying a theoretical and analytical method. This aim could be achieved through the use of Assistive Technology and careful design of internal environments. The study concludes that developing countries need to encourage more research leading to more awareness about the issue, about ways of dealing with persons with dementia and about more expertise in the field of Assistive Technology.
