Abstract

Conversation groups where people living with dementia get together, often with their family, are well established in many countries. They have been shown to provide opportunities for social activities, and being important for peer support, however the extent to which they can accommodate discussions on ethical issues is unclear. The study aimed to explore facilitations and challenges from conversation groups targeting people with dementia/family.
