• Repeating key information to help them stay focused.
• Speaking slowly and clearly.
• Giving choices instead of asking open-ended questions. For example, ask, “Would you like coffee or tea?” instead of “What do you want to drink?”
• Keeping information and questions short and simple.
• Using written words or pictures to help with tasks. For example, post pictures that show how to get dressed, or write down the steps for how to prepare a simple meal.
• Reminding the person about appointments or when to take medicine.
