This time on Creating Dementia Solutions, we focus on a program which can potentially help folks displaying early signs of dementia. But, it really can help any senior who is, perhaps, shut-in and/or lacking social interaction.
Pat Fosdick sits down and discusses the Telephone Reassurance program in Calhoun County (also implemented in other areas). We find out the interaction can be a lot more than just social.
