Dementia can pose challenges by changing the way a person communicates. Repetition, confusion, and inappropriate language are just a few examples of what caregivers may face. Today, we would like to share some curated content from past episodes that our audience has found to be the most useful—in developing techniques, and perhaps a fresh perspective, to connect with our loved ones in the face of dementia. Alexandra Morris, gerontologist and dementia care manager, will share tips about handling communication changes.
