  <p>_{Although individuals experiencing dementia lose some cognitive skills they never lose all their skills. In fact, with dementia, we keep our primary thinking skills and continue to live in the present—fully able to enjoy beauty, emotions and companionship. There are strengths and gifts in dementia and both you and your loved one will benefit when you understand how to recognize skills lost and skills kept. Understanding strength-based dementia supportive care will help eliminate a sense of suffering, keep your loved one home longer, with fewer behavior problems, and your family will have less stress and expense.}</p> 2023-01-18 11:30:00 -0600
