Dementia Care Do’s and Don’ts

Dementia is a common term used to characterize a loss in mental capacity that is severe enough to affect the ability of an individual and their performance of regular activities. Alzheimer’s disease, which accounts for 60 to 80 percent of all cases, is the most prevalent form of dementia. Popular dementia signs are short-term memory loss and concentration issues, with symptoms typically developing gradually over time.

Promoting a positive environment for a person with dementia or Alzheimer’s disease is ALWAYS possible; it’s all in the approach and by applying the basic “do’s and don’ts” for memory care.
