QUILTER CHEVIOT
After long being neglected, dementia is now gaining recognition as one of the biggest challenges facing the UK. The disease is now the leading cause of death in England and Wales, with 850,000 people living with the condition, around one in twenty of whom are under the age of 65.
An umbrella term used to describe a set of symptoms such as memory loss or diffi culty with thinking, problem solving or language, dementia’s most common causes are Alzheimer’s disease and strokes, which cause vascular dementia by aff ecting blood supply to the brain.
As dementia is a progressive disease, people will unfortunately lose their independence over time. There is currently no cure, and most drugs can only slow the rate of progress by around 6-18 months.
Some of the things to consider when helping someone with dementia include:
• Use the four Ps: » Person: get their full attention » Place: make sure it’s quiet and light
» Position: ensure the person can clearly see you and that your face is well lit
» Proximity: sit slightly closer than normal (without invading personal space) and allow them time to understand and process information before answering
• Can you help someone with dementia to ensure their fi nances are in order?
• Can you create a regular routine, to help someone with dementia feel more secure?
