Elderly parents and loved ones with dementia can lose their language skills and verbal communication abilities. They may speak, but their words don’t make sense. This speaking and not making sense is called "word salad dementia." It's like mixing up a bunch of words and trying to make a sentence out of them.
What can family members do to maintain relationships with loved ones with dementia when words no longer make sense? In this week's Episode 211, caregiving expert Pamela D Wilson offers tips for caregivers, family members, and friends of loved ones with dementia.
