About this episode
Do you ever feel like no matter what you try, your loved one with dementia still refuses your help, gets upset, or acts in ways that make no sense?
You're not alone — and you're probably not doing anything wrong. In this video, I share 5 often-overlooked reasons behind challenging dementia behaviors — including the #1 mistake most caregivers make without realizing it.
Once you understand what's really going on, you can stop taking things so personally and start using strategies that actually work.
