Life with dementia

A very insightful documentary examining life with dementia.

The classic signs of dementia are described. 

People with dementia can wander away from the secure environment of their home. Outside of the secure environment they are confused and vulnerable. 

The person with dementia requires time and patience from their carer. Reminders from this person's past like the songs the lady in the video sings are vital links to failing memories and very good therapy.

Above all the person with dementia needs love, kindness and reassurance to live in a confusing world....
