Toileting, Incontinence and Dementia, and what you need to Know
It is often common for people to have more difficulties using the toilet as they age, particularly if they have dementia. Incontinence and accidents can cause problems, especially as the person’s dementia progresses. This can be very challenging for caregivers to handle and manage. The session will focus on why this happens and tips for caregivers on how to deal with and manage this delicate matter.
