Abstract
Background: Young onset dementia (YOD) may develop rapidly, and affect those who have dependent children. Currently, there remains a lack of understanding of the impact on children living with a parent with YOD.
Aim: The aim of this systematic literature review is to explore published literature in order to understand the impact on children living with a parent with YOD.
Methods: A systematic search of the following databases: Medline; PsychINFO; CINAHL and Scopus for literature published from 1/1/2013 to 31/12/2018.
Results: Three major themes were identified, firstly coping encompassed two sub-themes of avoiding the situation and being empowered. Secondly, change encompassed two sub-themes of change of personality and change of family role, and lastly loss.
Conclusion: There remains a need to raise awareness and develop support services for children of parents with YOD. Community nurses are the best place healthcare professionals to identify and support the needs of both the person with YOD and their children.
