Communicating Better with People with Dementia

As our loved ones' cognitive abilities change over time, we have to change how we communicate to help them navigate through their day and to show we care. In this episode, we cover best practices in dementia communication and the particular phrases that are never helpful to say (eg "Don't you remember...?"). Our experienced care partners David Benjamin, Kathleen Suryan, and Susan Morenstein share their expert recommendations from years of communicating with their partners. Hosted by Rachel Main and Travis Urban MD.
