Make Dementia Your B*tch!

Episode 9: Dementia & Poop or How to Avoid Accidents and Feces Smearing


Listen Later

People living with dementia can have trouble doing simple things like controlling their bowel movements. In this episode, I discuss how procedural memories and apraxia can cause accidents. I also explain how to prevent accidental bowel movements and feces smearing. I also talk about copraphagia (eating feces) and how to avoid this behavior.
