Purpose:The purpose of the research was to obtain fundamental materials regarding changes in BPSD which used Moore functional dementia evaluation standards. Method : The research was carried out from September in 2009 to February in 2010. Institution residents of four floors of two Intermediate Facilities were used as subjects. We used "Texas Tech Functional Rating Scale for Symptoms of Dementia", and our subjects were elders with dementia with whom care practitioners felt a degree of difficulty. PASW ver.18 was used for the statistical analysis. Finding:The core focus of our study consisted of three males(42.86%) and four females(57.14%).The average and the standard deviation of their ages were 85.14±6.573. Findings showed that perception declines severely as time progresses. However, issues such as aimless wandering showed a decreasing tendency. Conclusion:When dementia was high-level, it was necessary to consider all facets of daily life in regards to self-care, and it became clear that subjects tend not to improve. However, memory and mental confusion issues such as checklist problematic behavior showed a tendency to improve with attention.
