Abstract
"'Help! I have to go home. Get me out of here!' yelled John. 'I have to go see my husband!' screamed Mary, whose husband has been dead for 12 years. "I want to go home! I have to feed my children!" cried Esther. These expressions are common among the disoriented aged. People having difficulty distinguishing reality from fantasy are not mindless or demented. There is a reason for all behavior, no matter how bizarre. However, such cries are difficult for caregivers who want to help the disoriented find contentment. To help caregivers relate to the disoriented person trapped in fantasy is the purpose for the Feil Method. Caregivers can help the confused gain a sense of well-being in a relationship of trust, according to the proponents of this approach."--First paragraph.s
