They're Seeing Things That Aren't There?! What's Really Going On


Listen Later

People with dementia sometimes see people and things that aren't there… even people who've passed away! But what does it really mean when someone with dementia starts having visual hallucinations?

In this episode, I'm sharing the surprising truth about hallucinations — one of the most confusing and misunderstood symptoms in dementia care. Some are harmless. Others? A warning sign.

Whether your loved one has ever said "There's someone in the room…" …or you've heard stories that seem impossible — you'll want to listen to this.

It's our mission to make dementia caregiving easier for families caring for a loved one with Alzheimer's disease, frontotemporal dementia, lewy body dementia, vascular dementia, or any other type of dementia. We believe that in order to create a more dementia-friendly world, we must first create a caregiver-friendly world. That's why we create free educational training videos like this one so that anyone with an internet connection can get access to dementia care information.
