In today’s episode, Inge-Marie, a DREAM Dementia Support Coach, talks with Yashi about a scenario where an older person living with dementia suddenly stops eating meals after previously eating well.
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
· Physical, emotional, or environmental factors that might contribute to the older person’s sudden loss of appetite.
· Responding calmly and supportively to encourage eating without causing pressure or distress.
· Alternative approaches or foods to make mealtimes more appealing and comfortable.
· Observing and documenting changes in eating habits to share with the care team for consistent support.
· How your own reactions or mealtime routines might affect the older person's willingness to eat.
