You can be 2 steps ahead! One of the biggest challenges people face when helping someone living with dementia is “getting them” to do activities of daily living. When someone is living with dementia, they may not remember the last time they did something, may have lost the ability to take the necessary multiple steps to complete a task, or no longer have the biological trigger to do something.
In this episode, Karla Frese with Home Care Partners shares ways to make sure you are 2 steps ahead so you and your loved one can be set up for success!
