It is important to be flexible and patient when caring for a loved one with dementia. The Mayo Clinic provides tips for daily tasks and how to care for someone with dementia, including:

• Reduce frustrations

• Create a safe environment
• Focus on individualized care

Comfort Keepers can help you and your loved one work through these recommendations to create the best environment and care plan.

• Specially trained caregivers
• Family education to better understand dementia
