How can we help a person suffering from dementia?

Approach them in a friendly manner
Ask them if you can help
Advise them to take their time as there is no hurry
Always listen carefully
If they are having difficulty with money, show them the correct coins or notes
Use simple language, speak clearly and slowly
If they don’t understand, try saying something another way
They may find writing something down or pointing out what they want an easier option.
