What Is Dementia Management?
Our team comprises geriatricians specializing in eldercare management, neuropsychologists aiding in dementia diagnosis through cognitive function evaluation, rehabilitation physicians, physiotherapists, and occupational therapists collaborating to oversee the rehabilitation program.
Numerous symptoms and behavioural conditions associated with dementia in early to mid-stages can be effectively managed through proactive rehabilitation. Cognitive rehabilitation, a pivotal aspect of the program, involves occupational therapists training patients in simple tasks to enhance daily life functionality.
While dementia isn’t reversible, effective early management can slow the rate of degeneration.
