Dementia By Day

"Where's the 'line' when it comes to 'lying?' What IS Embracing Their Reality™?"


Listen Later

What's the difference between lying and Embracing their Reality? I keep hearing people using this phrase incorrectly.

There are a lot of people who consider themselves experts in dementia care communication and they are still telling everybody the same thing that you've been hearing for years: Validation, Redirection, Distraction.

And that's NOT Embracing their Reality™. It's also not lying when you are doing what's true for THEM.

Stay for the entirety of this episode where I break down the difference between these two dementia care approaches.
