Living With Dementia Research Paper

Psychological conditions can occur as a possible consequence of a result of living with dementia. ‘A person begins to realise that his or her memory is failing, that there body and brain are no longer functioning properly and that everything in life is now uncertain and potentially unstable’ (Cheston and Bender, 2004) this concept suggests that due to the effect dementia has on a patient physically and mentally, it starts to challenge them and they no longer see a positive outcome when dealing with their condition.
