Dementia: myth vs fact

Dementia is one of the most misunderstood conditions in care. Tap a card to reveal the fact — and see why good training changes the care people receive.

Myth

“Dementia is just a normal part of getting old.”

Tap to reveal the fact ↻ Fact

It isn’t. Dementia is caused by diseases of the brain — many people reach old age without ever developing it.

Myth

“People with dementia can’t enjoy life or learn new things.”

Tap to reveal the fact ↻ Fact

Many live active, meaningful lives for years. The right support helps them stay engaged, connected and independent.

Myth

“If someone with dementia is agitated, there’s nothing you can do.”

Tap to reveal the fact ↻ Fact

Distress is usually communication. Finding the trigger — pain, noise, fear — often resolves it without medication.

Myth

“Dementia only affects memory.”

Tap to reveal the fact ↻ Fact

It can affect language, mood, movement, perception and judgement too — which is why tailored support matters.

Myth

“You should always correct someone with dementia when they’re confused.”

Tap to reveal the fact ↻ Fact

Correcting often increases distress. Meeting the person in their reality is usually kinder and more effective.

Myth

“Dementia and Alzheimer’s are two separate conditions.”

Tap to reveal the fact ↻ Fact

Alzheimer’s is the most common type of dementia — it’s one form of it, not a different condition.
