Abstract
"The purpose of this guidesheet is to provide families with information about daily care of the intellectually impaired person with irreversible dementia. Over one-half of the dementia cases are the irreversible Alzheimer's type and involve progressive intellectual decline. The individual increasingly loses the ability to remember, communicate, make judgements and act independently. (Keep in mind that some kinds of dementia may be reversible. For information on this see Home Economics guidesheets 6871, "Approaches to the Disoriented person in your life," and 6872, "Relating Is Their Therapy.")--First paragraph
