Practical tips for daily care
Caring for someone with dementia can be both emotionally and physically overwhelming. Some strategies that may help this include staying patient, maintaining routines, communicating clearly, and making time for yourself. Being able to access support services, counselling, respite care, and talking to other people who are experiencing or have experienced similar situations can also help to manage stress, fatigue, and anxiety.

Family members as well as professional carers shared that coping strategies, emotional support, and having access to reliable information can make a significant difference when caring for someone with dementia.
