Nursing home providers, especially the large chains, are responding to calls for improved services for people with Alzheimer's disease and other dementia-related disorders by developing special-care units.

养老院提供商，尤其是大型连锁机构，正在通过设立特殊护理单元来响应为患有阿尔茨海默病和其他痴呆相关疾病的人提供更好服务的呼声。自20世纪80年代中期以来就已经有了针对阿尔茨海默病的项目，但患该病老年人数量的不断增加以及其家人对优质长期护理项目的需求导致了此类项目的迅速发展。
