Summary

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the benefits of the Reborn®doll as an OT for the care of residents with Alzheimer's disease or related disorders, by assessing the frequency of resident agitation.

The secondary objectives are to study the frequency of treatments, evaluate the average time of exposure to the Reborn® doll, study the behavior of the residents, study the interest of this therapeutic workshop, thanks to an evaluation grid and finally study the repercussions of this OT on the nursing staff.

Interventions

DEVICE

Reborn doll (Therapeutic object - OT)

If the resident is randomized to the intervention group, the investigating team will give the Reborn®doll to the resident, during a 45-minute to 1-hour workshop, twice a week for 3 weeks. The OTs, wrapped in a blanket, are presented to the residents by a member of the investigative team trained in reborning , in the resident's room. If the resident is not in his/her room, he/she will be taken back to receive his/her doll. In the case of double rooms, it will be necessary to assess whether or not to leave the room-mate in the room, in order to limit the loss of reference points for the resident concerned by the study. The caregiver lets the resident appropriate and recognize the OT, so that he or she can find meaning in it and awaken his or her sensory memory.In total, the patient will be exposed to OT 6 times.
