Dementia Patient Won't Go to Social Daycare


How do you get a person living with Dementia to go to adult day care?

Question

One of our readers wrote:
Oh how I wish she would go! She calls it "Granny Day Care" and refuses to go.

I wanted her to go over a year ago. I told her recently that she would have made some new friends by now but she wants no part of it. I think they could accommodate the visual impairment there as well as the cognitive impairment.

She doesn't see herself as an older person, but she's 87!

Shaking my head....
