How to reduce overwhelm for both caregivers and loved ones living with dementia. 

Breaking down tasks into the smallest possible steps can help our loved ones who are living with dementia feel less overwhelmed and be more successful. If you do part of the task for them, they may be able to complete the task themselves and maintain a sense of independence as well as the muscle memory that goes along with the task.  Breaking down tasks can also help caregivers who feel stressed and overwhelmed. There is always a small action that can be taken even in the most complex and challenging tasks when we break it down. #dementiacaregiver #caregiver #dementia #dementiacare #task #dianechew
