As the holidays approach, open your ears and your heart to friends & family who are care partners.

When you listen, you step into their shoes for a moment and remind them that they're not alone.

Know that the #1 thing care partners say they need, is time away from their loved one to refuel.

A visit, outing, or phone/video call with a person living with dementia is a priceless gift for everyone 💚

If you agree, please help get the word out by sharing.

Often, tone of voice and body language are much easier to understand than words so...

1. Approach from the front so they are not startled to see or hear you.
2. Position yourself at eye level to avoid towering over them.
3. Smile!
4. Use a calm, clear voice.
5. Validate their feelings by matching their mood.

A HCD describes your wishes to receive or forego medical care in the event you can’t make or communicate a decision. It also assigns a surrogate to speak on your behalf.

A HCD is not only essential for people living with dementia - every adult should have one completed and filed in their medical record.

In simple terms, an occupational therapist (OT), looks at how health changes -
like dementia - affect a person’s ability to live their everyday life.

Then we try to answer the question:

How do we help people keep doing the things that matter, as independently and safely as possible.

Tunnel vision in dementia is usually unrelated to vision. It's more related to attention, a foundational component of cognition.

If it seems like your person is missing things "right in front of them" or tuning you out, they may be experiencing tunnel vision.

The brain no longer has the capacity to multitask or focus on more than one thing at a time.
