AnnotationMemory clinics appear to offer the best opportunity to identify people with dementia at an early stage, when they may be willing to discuss what they want to know, how they want to be cared for, and what sort of help they want. Memory retraining for those who are trying to cope with dementia will enable them to manage their memory difficulties better. (RH).
