Title for this page

edit

What do others think of the title?

Currently the page name is "Caregiving and dementia/Topics/Behaviour management" and the page title is "Responding to Unmet Needs of the Person with Dementia". I think this is OK for now (shorter page name, more descriptive title), but perhaps we start a section on the page that discusses the terminology that has and could be used to discuss dealing with unmet needs / related behaviour. This will help to explain the page name/title and topic. What do you think? -- Jtneill - Talk - c 01:11, 19 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
Following our teleconference discussion, I've changed the page title to "Behavioural and psychological symptoms". This may not be the eventual title, but it sounded pretty clear to me that this is a better title than behaviour management. -- Jtneill - Talk - c 23:43, 17 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
