Defining a good death for people with dementia: A scoping review.

The characteristics of a good death in dementia showed similarities with those identified more generally. However, there were some themes that were specific to end-of-life care in dementia, notably "surrounded by familiar things and people" and "person-centered communication". To obtain a fuller picture of the nature of a good death in dementia, researchers need to examine the views of people living with dementia.
