November is Men’s Health Month, helping to raise awareness of men’s physical and mental health. The aim is to encourage men to take a proactive approach to checking their health and wellbeing, including:

• Mental health, by opening up honest conversations
• Testicular cancer, by carrying out monthly self-checks and speaking with a GP right away if anything unusual is found
• Prostate cancer, by knowing that men aged fifty and over should speak with their GP about PSA testing

Taking proactive steps can support happier, healthier and longer lives for the men we care about.

🎶 The Therapeutic Power of Music in Care 🎶

Music can be a wonderful way to connect with your loved one and bring comfort, joy, and calm. It can help by:
• Supporting memories and mood: Familiar songs can unlock memories, reduce anxiety, and ease agitation in dementia.
• Encouraging communication: Music offers a powerful way to connect when words are difficult.
• Creating calm: It helps build a soothing atmosphere for both the person being cared for and the carer.

Try creating a personalised playlist of favourite songs to enjoy together - singing along can be a fun and meaningful shared activity.

Understanding Temperature Sensitivity in Dementia 🥶

Did you know that dementia can affect the brain’s ability to regulate body temperature? This means people living with dementia may:
• Not realise when they are too hot or too cold
• Wear unsuitable clothing, such as light layers in winter
• Become more confused or agitated due to temperature changes

As the weather gets colder, take a moment to check in - they might not be able to tell you they are feeling cold.

🎆 🎇 Happy Bonfire Night 🎇🎆

Loud noises and flashing lights can be distressing for people with dementia. The Alzheimer's Society has 5 tips for a safe celebration:

1. Plan ahead: Talk about the evening, check how they feel, and let neighbours know your plans.
2. Choose low-noise events: Look for professional displays that offer quieter options.
3. Stay comfortable: Have a calm space to retreat to or try ear defenders.
4. Create alternatives: Enjoy sparklers, watch from a distance, or have a themed dinner at home.
5. Skip the fireworks: It’s perfectly fine to avoid them - try a film, music, or audiobook indoors instead.

Communicating with someone who has dementia can be challenging, but small changes can make a big difference. Try these tips:

- Minimise distractions by turning off TV/radio.
- Use short, clear sentences and speak slowly.
- Give them plenty of time to process and reply.
- Use non-verbal cues, like eye contact, or gentle touch.
- Pay attention to their body language.
- Use names instead of ‘he’ or ‘she’.

Remember, listening with empathy is key to connection. Read the full guide from Dementia UK on their website here 👉 https://bit.ly/42VWNbD
