Speak Clearly
Communicating may become difficult for seniors
with dementia, especially those who develop
aphasia. Aphasia is common among older adults
with dementia, and theyll have difficulty
speaking as a result. The issues could be minor,
such as forgetting a word or two. However, as
dementia progresses, your parent may find it
difficult to speak using full sentences. Having a
conversation may be challenging, which is why you
should use nonverbal cues when talking to your
loved one and encourage him or her to do the
same. For instance, you can point to objects,
such as a bathroom door, kitchen utensils, or
pictures in a book or on a computer screen.
