abstract: This paper presents first before the clinical picture of dementia and is further on dedicated to ways of dealing with people who suffer from dementia. They often show - from the perspective of this often loaded and challenged social environment - unexpected and/or unpredictable behavior. There is no panacea for the ends of successful dealing with people with dementia. But experience in terms of both - general and specialized nursing strategies - may facilitate the handling and may ease the situation of affected. After a number of general strategies the specialist care strategies Fördernde Prozesspflege, Validation, Basale Stimulation(©) and Psychobiographisches Pflegemodell are presented.
