If you care for someone with dementia, this guide is for you.
It summarises many things you and the person you are caring for may need to think about. Some of the information here is important now. Other information will be useful later but is here for reference when you need it.
The guide contains six main sections:
- Understanding dementia: what it is, its symptoms and treatment
- Day-to-day-living: looking after the person with dementia, yourself, and the family
- Support: people and organisations who can help
- Legal and money: advice and sources of help
- Symptoms and behaviours: a look-up guide
- Medical terms: definitions of medical terms and abbreviations which medical professionals may use.
A benefit of having this information together and easily available is that you will be able to show it to other people, including the person you are caring for, where appropriate. Family members, friends or colleagues may all need information to understand what is happening and to see how they can help.
