“I don’t need help!” Up to 80% of individuals living with dementia may exhibit a lack of awareness of their cognitive decline, a phenomenon known as Anosognosia. While loved ones may observe changes in their abilities, convincing someone affected by Anosognosia to accept support can be challenging.
Join Karen Tyrell, a seasoned Canadian Dementia Consultant & Educator, as she shares three effective strategies for encouraging acceptance of support in individuals affected by Anosognosia. Gain valuable insights and practical techniques to navigate this complex aspect of dementia care and enhance the well-being of both individuals with dementia and their caregivers.
