Show answer and explanation
Answer: 1
Why 1 is correct
A person-with-dementia meeting (本人ミーティング) is a place where people with dementia gather to talk about their feelings and hopes. They also share what is said there with the community and society, so answer 1 is correct.
Why 2 is wrong
Certification of need for care (要介護認定) is carried out by the municipality (市町村), not this team. The Initial-Phase Intensive Support Team for Dementia (認知症初期集中支援チーム) is a team of medical and care professionals who visit people with dementia and their families to give focused support early on.
Why 3 is wrong
A doctor diagnoses dementia (認知症), not this coordinator. The Young-Onset Dementia Support Coordinator (若年性認知症支援コーディネーター) listens to the concerns of people with young-onset dementia and coordinates with other organizations about work and taking part in society.
Why 4 is wrong
Community care meetings (地域ケア会議) are mainly held by the municipality (市町村) or the Community General Support Center (地域包括支援センター). The Medical Center for Dementia (認知症疾患医療センター) is a medical institution that carries out differential diagnosis (鑑別診断) of dementia and gives specialist medical advice.
Why 5 is wrong
A dementia café (認知症カフェ) is a relaxed place where people with dementia, their families, local people, and professionals meet and talk. It does not train instructors. Dementia care instructors are trained at the Dementia Care Research and Training Center (認知症介護研究・研修センター).
Key point
A person-with-dementia meeting (本人ミーティング) lets people with dementia talk about their feelings and pass their voices on to society.
