Attractive stick-on labels for cabinets and drawers. An erasable whiteboard for listing the day&#8217;s activities.<\/li><li>A push-button wristwatch that will literally &#8220;tell the time&#8221; out loud.<\/li><li>A cell phone or personal alert system with a single button to request support from anywhere in an emergency.<\/li><li>An automated pill dispenser.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>A person with mid- or late-stage dementia thrives with simplicity.<\/strong> Even when words are failing, sensory pleasures can still be enjoyed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Music is almost always a hit, especially from the era of your loved one&#8217;s youth.<\/li><li>Easy-on and -off clothes in soft fabrics, such as sweats. Shoes with Velcro straps.<\/li><li>Cozy items for staying warm. A soft throw blanket, a fleece vest, or soft scarf. Even a furry stuffed animal as something to cuddle.<\/li><li>Scented skin lotions for arms and hands.<\/li><li>A robo pet. These lifelike pets can purr (or bark), tilt their heads, lift a paw, open and close their eyes, and respond to voice and touch. They have proven to be remarkably soothing for people in the later stages of dementia.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Are you caring for someone with memory loss?<\/strong><br>As the greater Cleveland experts in family caregiving, we at <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.careplangcm.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Careplan Care Managers<\/a><\/strong> can help.
