People living with dementia can experience changed perception. This often results in visual misinterpretation and disorientation, which can cause individuals to feel anxious, confused, agitated and distressed. However, simple changes in the environment can help.

In this video, the Social Care Institute for Excellence explains how simple changes can create a more dementia-friendly care home environment, which can have a positive impact on someone living with dementia.

This site was inspired by my Mom’s autoimmune dementia.

It is a place where we separate out the wheat from the chafe, the important articles & videos from each week’s river of news. Google gets a new post on Alzheimer’s or dementia every 7 minutes. That can overwhelm anyone looking for help. This site filters out, focuses on and offers only the best information. it has helped hundreds of thousands of people since it debuted in 2007. Thanks to our many subscribers for your supportive feedback.

The site is dedicated to all those preserving the dignity of the community of people living with dementia.
