Group-based cognitive stimulation has shown short-term benefits for the cognitive outcomes of people with dementia living in nursing homes (NH). However, group participation can be a barrier for people with advanced dementia, bedridden people or isolated people. The CogStim24 project seeks to develop and implement a new psychosocial intervention based on cognitively stimulating (CS) activities integrated into daily nursing care. As part of the intervention development process, this study aimed to survey NH managers' attitudes and describe currently used approaches to CS activities in German NH.
