Abstract

"One Last Time: An Evening with Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga" personified the use of person-centered care for someone living with dementia. Mr. Bennett was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, a type of dementia, in 2017. Transpersonal caring, a connection requiring full attention, authenticity, and a genuine concern for what is important to another person, is essential for working with people living with dementia. Lady Gaga illustrated examples of person-centered care with Mr. Bennett during a televized celebration of his 95th birthday.
