Individuals with Alzheimer\u0027s disease experience personality changes, loss of memory, and decreased verbal abilities. These devastating behavioral changes often result in the need for institutionalization of the person with Alzheimer\u0027s disease. The aim of this ethnomethodological study was to investigate how 44 residents of an inpatient Alzheimer\u0027s disease unit organized their everyday world, and how this organizational culture provided meaning for their lives. The methodology for this study was based on the previous works of Gubrium (1986a, 1989, 2000). Intensive fieldwork was conducted for six weeks on a special care unit in a south Florida nursing home. Forty-four residents, ranging in age from 72 to 10 I, participated in this study. Analysis of the data revealed eight themes by which the participants organized their everyday lives. They were: maintaining rituals, maintaining communication, maintaining family, maintaining role appointment, maintaining corporality, maintaining spatiality, maintaining relationality, and maintaining temporality. Findings from this study will provide insight into the behaviors of people with Alzheimer\u0027s disease for everyone who is affected or has been affected by the phenomenon. Knowledge gained from this study can be used as supporting evidence for changing the staffing mix in nursing homes by increasing the direct care provided by professional registered nurses. Of utmost importance, the findings of this study gave a voice to all those who could no longer describe the meaning of this human experience." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Classification" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "RC523.H33 2003" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Publication Date" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "2003" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Genre" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Academic theses" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Holding Location" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Barry University Archives and Special Collections" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Resource Identifier" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "RC523.H33 2003_HackerMarcia" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Language" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "English" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Permanent Link" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "http://sobekcmsrv.barrynet.barry.edu/AA00001906/00001" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Creator" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Hacker, Marcia Jean" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Note" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Thesis (Ph.D.)--Barry University, 2003.", "Includes bibliographical references (leaves 93-101)." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Physical Description" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "vii,101 leaves ; 28 cm" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Publisher" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Barry University" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Place of Publication" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Miami, Fla." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Type" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Book" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Rights Management" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Copyright Marcia Jean Hacker.
