Abstract

This article reviews the literature on external sensory environments in dementia care. It describes the development of a sensory garden in a day hospital for older people with dementia and functional conditions. Dementia Care Mapping was used to map clients attending the day hospital before, during and after the creation of the garden. Carers and staff were interviewed before and after to elicit their opinions.
