Check-Ups and Dementia from Comfort Keepers Senior Care in Troy, MO

I have been to many eye and dental checkups with clients who have had Alzheimer's and dementia. Sometimes it went well, and sometimes it didn't. Sometimes the solution is fairly simple, I had one eye doctor use the children's charts and that seemed to work well. Sometimes the client became so frustrated and confused nothing could be done.

This article, Eye, Ear, Teeth Check-ups Are Difficult When Elders Have Dementia, talks about this problem further.
