We all know how important engagement is for quality of life. Being engaged in a meaningful activity empowers us, gives us a sense of belonging, and calms us in times of distress.
When dementia enters the picture, however, finding ways to engage can become challenging. The person may start needing prompts when they used to engage on their own. What once worked may no longer feel right, and well-intended activities can sometimes be met with refusal or frustration.
At Dementia Partnered Care, I specialise in practical, person-centred engagement strategies for people living with dementia, their family members, and care providers.
Whether you want to leave visits feeling more connected, find ways to keep your loved one engaged throughout the day, or support them when they are distressed, I’m here to help.

Throughout this website, you’ll see me refer to “the person living with dementia,” “the person you care for,” “the person you care about,” or “your loved one” — often interchangeably. This is intentional. Dementia is a progressive condition, and your relationship with the person may shift over time. You might be supporting someone who still lives independently and doesn’t need hands-on care. Also, the term “loved one” can suggest a close emotional bond, which may not reflect everyone's experience. My aim is to be as inclusive and respectful as possible — of your unique relationship, your role, and the person’s journey with dementia.
