Description

Ever wonder what it truly feels like for your loved one living with dementia? 

In this episode, we explore the sensory and cognitive challenges they face daily through an eye-opening dementia simulation experience. 

By understanding these challenges, caregivers can adapt communication strategies to better support their loved ones.


Living with dementia involves constant changes in sensory perception. As caregivers, adapting communication methods to address these changes makes the journey less stressful and more fulfilling. 

Imagine trying to navigate life with limited sight, muffled hearing, and reduced sensation—and let this empathy guide how you connect with your loved one.


Are you ready to transform your caregiving approach? Consider these tips to make each interaction meaningful and respectful, helping you bridge the gap and support your loved one with compassion.
