Such a thought provoking day at the 'I am more than' event. It was both humbling & inspiring to hear about work so far to support inclusion of people who are homeless in research & excited to be part of the next phase - building this approach into practice. #DorsetInnovationHub

People with dementia find comfort and security in familiar routines as it helps them to feel more in control of their environment.
Try to be consistent and patient and be open to adapting the routine as needed. 💛
