Overview
Dementia is a general term for a decline in cognitive abilities that interferes with daily life. It’s not a single disease, but rather a group of conditions that affect memory, thinking, and behavior. While memory loss is a common symptom, dementia can also impact reasoning, judgment, language, and coordination.
Dementia Rehab
While there is no cure for dementia, rehabilitation can significantly improve the quality of life for those living with the condition. Rehabilitation programs aim to:
- Maintain cognitive function: Through targeted exercises and activities, rehabilitation can help slow cognitive decline and improve memory, problem-solving, and communication skills.
- Promote independence: Rehabilitation programs can help individuals with dementia develop strategies to manage daily activities like dressing, bathing, and preparing meals, fostering a sense of independence and dignity.
- Enhance emotional well-being: Dementia can lead to anxiety and depression. Rehabilitation programs can incorporate support groups and therapeutic activities to promote emotional well-being and social connection.
