LEARN ABOUT THE BENEFITS OF CARE FOR THE ELDERLY THROUGH OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY
The objective of this research is to determine the effects of care through therapeutic practice on people with dysphagia in order to understand the benefits from an occupational therapy perspective.
The methodology involved searching for information from scientific articles in various databases, which made it possible to construct data not only related to the study population with dysphagia but also to the person's environment, such as care provided by another person.
This characterization allowed us to discover aspects related to the number of existing studies on the benefits of care, both for older adults with dysphagia and for their caregivers, from an occupational therapy perspective.
