Explore the Measures and Effects of Cognitive Psychological Care for Elderly Patients with Mental Illness
Objective: To analyze the effect of cognitive psychological nursing on improving the cognitive function, psychological state and quality of life of elderly patients with mental illness. Methods: 80 geriatric psychiatric patients treated in our hospital from January 2022 to December 2023 were selected and divided into two groups using the random number table method, with 40 people in each group. The routine care group adopted routine geriatric psychiatric care measures, and the cognitive care group implemented additional cognitive psychological care on the basis of routine care. Finally, the cognitive function scores, mental state scores and quality of life scores of the two groups of patients were compared after care. Results: The cognitive function scores and quality of life scores of patients in the cognitive care group were higher than those in the routine care group, and the mental state scores were lower than those in the routine care group (P < 0. 05). Conclusion: The application of cognitive psychological nursing in the care of elderly patients with mental illness can effectively improve the patient’s cognitive function and psychological state, and at the same time improve the patient’s quality of life. This nursing method has the value of clinical promotion.
