The objective of the present study was to determine predictive factors for hospitalizations in people with dementia.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 70 individuals with dementia living in a veterans\u2019 home in southern Taiwan were consecutively enrolled. During prospective follow up, all hospitalization events were recorded.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The mean age of residents with dementia was 86.1\u00a0\u00b1\u00a04.0\u00a0years, and the mean follow\u2010up time for this population was 2.2\u00a0\u00b1\u00a01.1\u00a0years. Among individuals, 62.9% suffered from malnutrition or were at risk of malnutrition (minimal nutritional assessment\u2010short form score \u226411), and 8.6% of individuals had a body mass index of &lt;18.5\u2009Kg\/m<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>. There were 52 (74.3%) individuals who had previously fallen. Overall, 51 of 70 residents were hospitalized during the follow\u2010up period. In those individuals with previous falls, there was a significantly increased risk of hospitalization (odds ratio 5.61, 95% CI 1.18\u201326.7). Furthermore, three factors were significantly associated with the risk of fall, including handgrip strength, malnutrition and Mini\u2010Mental State Examination score.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>The results of the present study showed that hospitalization was a frequent event in residents with dementia living in a long\u2010term care facility. The major predictor for hospital admission was history of a previous fall. Screening those with dementia for history of injurious falls and associated risk factors for falling could help identify those at risk of hospitalization, thus necessitating a comprehensive intervention to reduce hospitalization. <jats:bold>Geriatr Gerontol Int 2017; 17 (Suppl. 1):
