Why not just ask the people with the highest cognitive functioning about their satisfaction?
Residents with dementia comprise the largest and most vulnerable group of long-term care facility residents.Not only does their inclusion strengthen the reliability of the results, but also it is ethical to try to include all residents perspectives.It provides a more realistic view of residents experiences in long-term care facilities.If the majority of residents are systematically omitted from satisfaction surveys, the information cannot be considered accurate.
