Alzheimer's causes a number of changes in the brain and body that may affect safety. Depending on the stage of the disease, these can include changes in judgment, abstract thinking, sense of time/place and behavior. As the disease progresses, the person's abilities will change. So situations that are not of concern today may become potential safety issues in the future. Taking measures to ensure safety at all times can help
prevent injuries, and it can help people with dementia
feel relaxed and less overwhelmed. Use the tips and resources
in this section to evaluate your surroundings for any
particular dangers and change them to meet individual
needs.
