Dementia Changes Instrumental Activities of Daily Living First

The most well known undesired symptom of dementia is memory loss.  Memory loss is described as difficulty with acquiring, storing, and recalling information. 

These cognitive tasks are essential to efficiently participate in the Instrumental Activities of Daily Living.  These are things like planning a grocery list, sorting mail, keeping track of appointments and knowing the steps taken with processes like washing clothes.

The ability to perform the instrumental activities of daily living falls away first as these tasks are bit more complex.  This is hard for family and providers to assess. 

- the elder experiencing dementia will forget how to work the shower long before they are physically- functionally unable to bathe

- the elder experiencing dementia will forget how to work the toaster long before they are physically-functionally unable to make breakfast

- the elder experiencing dementia will forget how to work the washing machine long before they are physically-functionally unable to do laundry

Because of the memory loss the elder experiencing dementia will not agree with family and friends that these things are not being done.  The elder experiencing dementia requires the assistance of another to complete these daily activities - but will not understand why.

Family and friends are beginning to discover the art of delivering care for an individual experiencing the undesired symptoms of dementia is labor intensive.
