Guide to caring for the person with dementia

Digital

Informal caregivers are people who often need support and guidance to improve their performance in their caregiving task.

Caring for a person with dementia requires a lot of individual physical, psychological and emotional abilities and skills.

Because of the experience of Santa Casa da Misericórdia de Lisboa in this area, through its Social Action and Health areas, this informative set comes with several suggestions.

It is with this purpose of providing information and making the caregiver's day-to-day simpler that we present this Suggestion Guide prepared by health experts in the areas of aging and dementia.
We hope you enjoy this guide and that it makes your day-to-day easier.
