@debrakostiw: "Dementia Care's Biggest Lie: Why 'Redirect’ Doesn't Work (And What Does)" Every dementia caregiver has heard the advice: 'Just distract and redirect.' But no one actually shows you how... Most trainers tell you to “redirect” when your Loved One is already upset or angry. But here's the truth: Redirect too soon, and you'll fail. Every. Single. Time. There's a critical missing step— one most trainers don't even know exists. In the Certified Master Dementia Strategist Course, I reveal the secret hidden technique that must happen BEFORE redirection. The secret insider step that shows you how to EASILY redirect to an activity. You'll learn: The crucial pre-redirection technique other trainers miss: -Precise timing for meaningful activities. -How to make your Loved One feel genuinely valued -Techniques to end activities smoothly and positively -Hundreds of activity ideas to last a lifetime Other trainers give surface-level advice. I’ll give you a breakthrough strategies and confidence. Because when a person with dementia feels truly important, their challenging behaviors diminish— and your caregiving journey becomes more peaceful. Caregiving is hard. But it doesn't have to be overwhelming. Let me show you how easy it is to divert to an activity that will change everything.

I don't believe in playing along. my parents would always tell my grandma that grandpa was at work and coming home when she'd ask where he was. I would straight out tell her grandpa died years ago.

You're amazing. My mom had dementia and I would have done the same thing. I never made my mom feel less than my mom. Total respect. She always knew me.

My mom is in early stages of dementia and this helps me so much prepare for what is going to happen. I am having trouble diverting her attention to something else or switching convos like this.
