WHO defines Dementia as 'a syndrome in which there is deterioration in memory, thinking, behaviour and the ability to perform everyday activities.'
This affects the person's day-to-day activities and requires constant oversight and caution. The person affected is required to be treated with care and patience. There needs to be scheduling of activities, instructing for the simplest of tasks and scheduling napping to prevent reversal of the sleep cycle.
The need for counselling for coping with changed behaviour and memory boosting activities may arise in early stages.
The entire caregiving approach with constant supervision is what constitutes Dementia Care.
Dementia is not a specific disease, it is a group of conditions characterized by progressive deterioration of cognitive function (like memory, thinking, orientation, comprehension, etc.).
Alzheimer disease is the most common form of Dementia. Other forms are vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia, frontotemporal dementia and so on.
But, all forms of dementia require this kind of special care and oversight.
Dementia caregiving takes patience and flexibility. The process can become very frustrating and overwhelming at times, especially when all members of the household are working.
