Holiday travel may be overwhelming for someone with Alzheimer’s disease
|
|
|
When taking a trip to visit friends and family over the holidays, it's important to consider the difficulties and benefits of travel for a person with Alzheimer’s or another dementia. In the early stages, a person may still enjoy traveling; as the disease progresses, travel may become too overwhelming.
