The physician's expressed approval of the caregiver's performance has much credibility with the caregiver, thus providing relief. No matter how many hours of devoted care are given, a caregiver almost never hears a "thank you" from a demented loved one. By listening closely to the caregiver, the physician will glean information decisive to the care of both the demented patient and the caregiver. This personal attention also affords the caregiver an outlet for stress.
医生对护理人员工作表现的明确认可，对护理人员来说极具可信度，从而能让他们感到宽慰。无论付出多少小时的悉心照料，护理人员几乎从未从患有痴呆症的亲人那里听到过一句“谢谢”。通过仔细倾听护理人员的讲述，医生将收集到对痴呆患者和护理人员护理都至关重要的信息。这种个人层面的关注也为护理人员提供了一个释放压力的途径。
