Incongruent perceptions of the care values of hospitalized persons with dementia: a pilot study of patient-family caregiver dyads.

Our findings reveal significant levels of incongruence in perceptions of the PWD's values among dementia care dyads in the hospital setting. Our analysis suggests a potential impact of relationship variables on incongruence. Further research is needed around this overlooked interpersonal context for supporting the dementia care dyad in the hospital setting.
