Dementia Caregiving

Dementia caregiving involves supporting individuals with dementia, a condition affecting memory, thinking, and behavior. Caregivers help with daily activities like bathing, eating, and managing medications, while also providing emotional support and maintaining safety. They must often adapt communication styles to ensure understanding and reduce frustration. The role can be both rewarding and challenging, requiring patience and understanding of the disease. Caregivers also benefit from resources and support networks to manage their own stress and well-being as they navigate the complexities of dementia care.
