Always knew S can be a great letter for dementia though it does have a few of the S’s that can set “sadly super sensitive” tones. #diversealz

Question 3 draws on @TommyTommytee18 point. We know the s words we don’t want to see #diversealz

Question 3 asks about an s word that should be in action and why. @derekfisher2907 mentions showing...what can be done after diagnosis. Would say Showing shows what can be done across board. Thoughts? #diversealz
Diverse Alzheimers @DiverseAlz
Success mentioned by @Dembkclub nod to achievements take @WendyPMitchell whose book published and promoted with commitment by major publisher, highlights what life/living with dementia is like #diversealz
Shirley Clements @shizc1
@DiverseAlz @TommyTommytee18 @BubblyNas Sensitivity of those involved in caring, techniques which are soothing, stimulating and awaken senses to allow appreciation of sensations. #diversealz

@DiverseAlz @TommyTommytee18 @BubblyNas Sexuality - so overlooked as an ADL especially in patients diagnosed with dementia. #diversealz

Sexuality mentioned by @BubblyNas another important word. Some people might see it as loaded...even don’t go there. thoughts cc @sallyknocker @willow_lodge @Shedfieldlodge #diversealz Lots of issues/topics here
Diverse Alzheimers @DiverseAlz
Got Idea thanks to @Shedfieldlodge liking alphabet approach. going to go through the alphabet each week to ask this very question about words springing to mind. Will spend five minutes! #diversealz it will be our ice breaker! @nchadborn
Diverse Alzheimers @DiverseAlz
@derekfisher2907 @nursesKidONE Point taken but think All about interpretation. Sitting can be seen in so many ways #diversealz.

More research on and more availability of Speech pathology services to Support people diagnosed with Primary Progressive Aphasia to develop effective adaptive communication skills and technologies. Improved rates of accurate differential diagnosis from Alzheimer's. #diversealz https://t.co/LHIq4CNQ8Z

@Shedfieldlodge @DiverseAlz @BubblyNas @sallyknocker @willow_lodge Sad that people with dementia are given very little privacy but still have needs which may lead to anger, agitation or depression if supressed. #diversealz

Unfortunately, I learned about Primary Progressive Aphasia after my mom died. But as soon as I read about PPA, after it was mentioned by @yodsupporter, it explained why my care partner journey was so different from many that are described. #diversealz https://t.co/mUiHFFT2ZD

Sharing is gr8. Have used alphabet approach in ad hoc way. Thanks to @Shedfieldlodge have devised way to use consistently and thanks to @nchadborn on encouraging folk to say hi, can use approach as ice breaker #diversealz.
