The Dementia Whiplash: Good Day, or Bad One?
Dementia & Families: A Balancing Act by Kelly A Bertenshaw, MA CCC SLP ECDCS
Episode notes
This episode of A Balancing Act tackles the "whiplash" of sudden ups and downs in dementia caregiving. Why abilities seem to flicker day to day, when a sudden change warrants a call to the doctor, and how to become a detective when there's no clear medical cause. Kelly offers practical ways to respond with curiosity and flexibility instead of fear when a loved one's condition unexpectedly shifts.
