Do People With Dementia Know They Are Forgetting Things?



It’s our mission to make dementia caregiving easier for families caring for a loved one with Alzheimer’s disease, frontotemporal dementia, lewy body dementia, vascular dementia, or any other type of dementia. We do so by making free educational training videos like this so that anyone with an internet connection can access this information.

In this video, I answer the question about if people with dementia know they are forgetting things. The answer is sometimes yes and sometimes no and sometimes both.

In case you haven’t met me, my name is Natali Edmonds and I am a board certified geropsychologist. That means that I am a clinical psychologist who specializes in working with older adults. One day, while hiking a trail, I came up with the idea for Careblazers and I decided to see if posting videos online could provide help to the many other Careblazers in the world who don’t get to have help come directly to them in their homes. I hope that this work helps you in some way on your caregiving journey.
