Life Story Questionnaire and Physical Therapy Participation

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The goal of this clinical trial is to see the effect of life story questionnaire (LSQ) on physical therapy participation in patients with dementia. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: 1. What is the effect of LSQ usage on physical therapy participation in people with dementia? 2. What is the effect of LSQ usage on depression in people with dementia? 3. What is the effect of LSQ usage on the quality of life in people with dementia? The researcher will compare these effects between the intervention group (usage of the Life Story Questionnaire) and the control group (no usage of the Life story questionnaire). All Participants will receive Physical therapy treatment as usual. The life Story Questionnaire will be used in the intervention group during physical therapy treatment. Life Story Questionnaire: It is developed by the Crisis Prevention Institute, which is a type of life story book for people with dementia. The LSQ allows caregivers to start conversations about topics that are important to each patient, can help establish rapport between the caregiver and patient.
