Welcome to the place where I share dementia tips, strategies, and information for family members caring for a loved one with any type of dementia (such as Alzheimer's disease, Lewy Body dementia, vascular dementia, frontotemporal dementia, etc.)

In today's video I talk about a common symptom of dementia delusions. Delusions are really strong beliefs that your loved one may have that are false or don't make sense at all. The challenge is that if you try to correct your loved one or convince them that they are wrong, this will make your relationship worse and likely lead to more arguments.

If your loved one with dementia has been accusing you of things or believing things that aren't true, then you will want to watch this video to learn 4 ways to responding to these beliefs.

In case you haven’t met me, my name is Natali Edmonds and I am a board certified geropsychologist. That means that I am a clinical psychologist who specializes in working with older adults. One day, while hiking a trail, I came up with the idea for Careblazers and I decided to see if posting videos online could provide help to the many other Careblazers in the world who don’t get to have help come directly to them in their homes. I hope that this work helps you in some way on your caregiving journey.
