In order to be happy, Kuhn suggested that people with Alzheimer's disease have three central needs that go beyond physical requirements. Those three needs are:

A) Intimacy, community, and meaningful activities
B) Shelter, clothing, and food
C) Rejection, loneliness, and real or imagined fears
D) Writing a journal or book about personal experiences, being shown how fears are unwarranted, and with opportunities to express their sexuality
E) Having their mistakes corrected, focusing on current news events, and taking them off all medications other than those directly related to their dementia
