【80歳の証言】なぜ？老人ホームで認知症のような症状が…その本当の理由と再起への道のり｜『普通の生活』の大切さ

The reality of living in a facility as told by an 80-year-old. Dementia? The causes and hints for improvement [Experience] *This video is a creative composition based on one individual's experience, and is not intended to criticize any particular facility or staff. There are many wonderful nursing homes and senior housing facilities across the country that respect the dignity and individuality of their residents and are sincerely committed to dementia care and life rehabilitation. We ask for your understanding and cooperation in viewing this film as a "story" told from the perspective of an elderly woman who may not have necessarily received sufficient support, and in not generalizing or biasing the evaluation of all facilities. We offer our heartfelt respect and gratitude to all the professionals and people involved who are devoted to elderly care every day under difficult circumstances. "I'll feel safe if I go to a facility," thought Sumiko (80 years old), but what she faced at the nursing home was a reality that was a little different from what she had imagined. The quiet changes in cognitive function and daily rhythm that creep up on old age, which should be peaceful, and the feeling of losing "ordinary life"... This story is based on the experience of an 80-year-old woman, and is a record of confronting "changes in the heart and mind" that are often overlooked in daily life, and finding the true reasons and a little hope. I hope that this will provide hints that will lead to empathy and discovery about the anxieties that many people may have in old age, the meaning of choosing a facility, the thoughts of families, and how important "opportunities to think" and "roles" are. I hope that this experience will be a small opportunity to think together about your own life and the way support should be.
