What are the stages of dementia?

Описание: Welcome to the place where I share dementia tips, strategies, and information for family members caring for a loved one with any type of dementia (such as Alzheimer's disease, Lewy Body dementia, vascular dementia, frontotemporal dementia, etc.)

In today’s video, I’m sharing 3 different “tools” to help you determine what stage of dementia your loved one is in. Like so many things about dementia, it’s not “clear cut” or “easy.” Despite that, I do hope that this video can help you get a better understanding of your loved one. Don’t forget to watch the video on the 4 important things to keep in mind when you think about dementia stages first.

In case you haven’t met me, my name is Natali Edmonds and I am a board certified geropsychologist. That means that I am a clinical psychologist who specializes in working with older adults. One day, while hiking a trail, I came up with the idea for Careblazers and I decided to see if posting videos online could provide help to the many other Careblazers in the world who don’t get to have help come directly to them in their homes. I hope that this work helps you in some way on your caregiving journey.
