"The consistency led to a good experience"

We had a 6 monthly young onset dementia review, my husband will soon be in his 10th year of young onset dementia.

The visits were carried out by Karen, she has known my husband and myself for many years, so this consistency led to a good experience.

Dementia has taken away my husband's speech pattern but because Karen is familiar with my husband's reactions and body language and he remember hers, communication was successful.

It is vital we have Karen for our dementia review meetings to enable my husbands needs to be met in a person centred and caring way.
