In today’s episode, Penny, a DREAM Dementia Support Coach, and Yashi discuss a scenario where an older person living with dementia loses interest in long-loved activities.
This episode is part of our navigating changing behaviours in people living with dementia series, where we dive into real-life behavioural shifts and share practical strategies to help caregivers respond with confidence and compassion.
Tune in as they discuss
· What the older person might be trying to communicate through a loss of interest in familiar activities.
· Encouraging engagement in new activities while respecting past preferences and identity.
· Strategies to gently introduce meaningful and enjoyable new activities.
· Observing and documenting responses to activities to inform future care planning.
· How your attitudes and flexibility as a support worker affect the resident’s willingness to participate.
