How to take care of Elders with Dementia? Epoch Dementia Care Program!
Dementia is a neurodegenerative condition and is not a normal part of aging. It is complex, misunderstood, unpredictable, and draining. It impacts physical, psychological, and financial health, not only of the elder but also of family members.
10 million people get diagnosed with dementia each year globally and the projected numbers are frightening. As the world awaits a cure for this disease, we need to rely on effective management strategies to improve prognosis, delay stage progression & preserve the quality of life.
The Epoch Dementia Care Program focuses on managing symptoms through prioritizing emotional well-being. We believe that if an elder is happy, they are much more coherent, oriented, and cognitive. They are also more receptive to care.
The dementia care plan focuses on the person as much as the clinical condition. We are delighted to share with you our very own video on dementia care at Epoch! Watch this to understand what are the various pieces that need to come together for an effective dementia care plan to be implemented.
