Middle Stage
Dementia may be something you have lived with for a while or a shorter time. As dementia progresses, the abilities of the person living with dementia change too. They are working hard to keep up with daily life and need an increasing amount of support to make sense of the world around them. As dementia progresses, roles and responsibilities change for everyone involved. All the changes bring new emotions and grief.
