“People with dementia often experience pain that is undetected and under-treated. It’s not that family and healthcare providers do not care. It happens because people with dementia are often not able to clearly voice that they have pain. Often they express their pain in ways that we do not usually think of as indicating pain.” For an online presentation about pain and dementia, additional materials and a toolkit for organizations, go to www.painanddementia.ualberta.ca. |
