Dementia Diagnosis, What Next?
Dementia Wellbeing
If you are concerned that your memory, or the memory of a loved one or friend is not what it once was, then you may well be looking at this site to learn more and seek out how to get some help.
Whether you have a formal diagnosis, or not, its good to find out more about the help that is available as soon as possible. Following a diagnosis it is really important to everyone to have follow-up advice and guidance and support. The sooner this starts the sooner you will find your ways to manage, to cope, to get through and so to live better with the conditions.
Heading into a dementia diagnosis without some help and support can be like setting out on a long journey to an uncharted place without a map or GPS and insufficient rations to sustain you on what could well be a long and challenging voyage. Finding yourself, spouse, partner, child, or a family friend, thrown into the role of ‘carer’ with little understanding as to what this might entail, can be very daunting.
We know that receiving such life changing news can sometimes rock the relationship boat. But finding accessible care and support at the right time can help you all to find balance and the space and time to find new ways of doing things so that life does move forward, albeit on a slightly different course.
For all affected, with the correct kit and provisions and a well rehearsed crew in support, you can undertake the journey with good prospects.
Read on to learn that Regenerage is a good place to find that experienced caring support crew and ways and means to adapt and endure safely the whole journey, while retaining your individual sense of self.
