how does models of dementia care view the person with dementia
why dementia hasn't affected me as a person
Communication can be categorized into three basic types: (1) verbal communication, in which you listen to a person to understand their meaning; (2) written communication, in which you read their meaning; and (3) nonverbal communication, in which you observe a person and infer meaning.
Some barriers to communication include language, distractions and comprehension. If a person doesn't understand the words another person is saying, then they will not receive the message the speaker is sending.
It can lead to not being able to understand anything they talk about. For example, if I was on the phone with a Chinese person who could speak English just not with our accent, then this could affect the communication I have with that person. It could also affect him/her to not understand what I am saying.
if the person that is speaking can't explain what they want to say. if the listener doesn't understand what the speaker is saying. if neither the speaker or listener can't understand one another.
Language differences can make it hard to understand what the other person is saying. When you don't understand another person's language, you can miss subtle ways they communicate.
Synonyms are important in communication because if the person you are communicating with does not fully understand the meaning of a certain word, a synonym can be helpful in replacing that word with one they better understand. Example: If someone does not fully understand the word " benevolent", replacing it with the word "nice" could help he or she understand you.
without speaking, we are alike dumb person
Listening is vital to real communication because it is how we truly understand what the other person is communicating to us. It also allows us to ask questions if what the person is saying is not clear to us.
I think person centered care is not something specific to dementia, it is the concept of putting the person being cared for at the heart of the care process.
