Cultural Adaptation of Cognitive Stimulation Therapy (CST) for Portuguese People with Dementia.
CONCLUSIONS: CST seems feasible and culturally appropriate in Portugal. A systematically developed and culturally adapted manual is ready to be used in a large-scale implementation and validation of CST in Portugal.
CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: CST is a valid program for the Portuguese culture, contributes to the availability of a structured and effective clinical intervention for PwD in Portugal and to the possibility of comparing programs across countries.
