Implementation of validation therapy for patients with dementia : project of making educational video for nursing students

Abstract

Creating a new and updated instructional visual on the use of validation therapy for students in the nursing department at Centria University of Applied Sciences was the goal of this functional thesis. Validation therapy is a popular kind of therapy used by gerontological nurses since it has been shown to reduce agitation, apathy, irritation, and disturbances throughout the night. To promote patient well-being and give more attention to various aspects of care, Nurses must become experts in the art of healing. In the training video, validation therapy will be mentioned as one of these social caregiving strategies.

The goal of the thesis is to expand more on how instructive recordings will be delivered for showing gerontological nursing understudies. The creators made the video content for the usefulness of nursing students to sharpen gerontological nursing studies. The thesis will likely build comprehension of validation treatment and its capability in dementia patients' nursing care. This was accomplished by making the recording illustration available for viewing whenever required. The concluded project offers a theoretical understanding of the fundamental attitudes, theories, and methods of validation therapy.

A volunteer and the health care teacher collaborated to create the informative video. Current information from books, journals, articles, research papers, and earlier projects served as the foundation for the filming. In the video, approval treatment is observed given to an aged client. The recording opens with a dementia patient being conceded and attended to by a representative; it closes with the patient and caretaker showing indications of trust. The recorded result is presented to Centria University of Applied Sciences, nursing department. It is then recommended as an instructive device.
