Planning can help senior citizens struggling with Alzheimer’s, dementia

Summer can often be a challenging time for seniors who struggle with brain illnesses like Alzheimer’s and dementia.

To help keep them safe, you can clear your home of anything they can trip or fall on.

You should also know when your loved ones are more active during the day and when they may try to wander.

Make sure you have a plan in place if someone does go missing.

Take extra care by giving people with dementia lots of water and keeping them protected from the sun.
