Helpers can support at any stage of dementia
At Manana, we understand that Alzheimer’s and dementia can impact your quality of life in a big way. As cognitive abilities decline, and individuals struggle to perform basic activities independently, caregivers can provide essential daily assistance with personal tasks, emotional support, and a safe and familiar environment. We want to help you or your loved one manage symptoms so you can find comfort and peace in everyday communication and activities.
Though research is not firm on whether social isolation is a risk factor or consequence of dementia, some studies show that “social isolation can increase a person’s risk of dementia by about 60%” according to the Alzheimer’s Society. “There is known to be a strong connection between high social contact later in life and memory and thinking skills,” further pointing to the idea that social contact can build cognitive reserve. Moreover, it can reduce stress, improve mood, and encourage healthy habits like exercise or hobbies.
“There is currently no cure for dementia. But there are medicines and other treatments that can help with dementia symptoms.” According to the NHS, cognitive stimulation therapy, cognitive rehabilitation, and reminiscence can all promote improved mood and overall well-being, while helping you or a loved one better cope.
