BE mindful of lights and music at home if you re having Christmas with someone who has dementia, warns a care company which says the festivities can be frightening for those with the condition. Kathy Myers from Home Instead Senior Care said many people with dementia have missed out on the stimulation of things like lunch clubs and singing groups during the pandemic, and now find it difficult to communicate well. Kathy, a Dementia Champion for the Alzheimer’s Society, says some careful planning can help families cope over Christmas: “If you re hosting Christmas, think about how your home is laid out. Loud music, flashing lights on the tree and a room full of people can be scary for those with dementia. Can the lights be switched to a static setting? If not, consider turning them off. If your relative is hard of hearing, music can stop them understanding conversations. Try turning it down a little or only have it playing part of the day.
