  1. Speak Clearly Communicating may become difficult for seniors with dementia, especially those who develop aphasia. Aphasia is common among older adults with dementia, and they’ll have difficulty speaking as a result. The issues could be minor, such as forgetting a word or two. However, as dementia progresses, your parent may find it difficult to speak using full sentences. Having a conversation may be challenging, which is why you should use nonverbal cues when talking to your loved one and encourage him or her to do the same. For instance, you can point to objects, such as a bathroom door, kitchen utensils, or pictures in a book or on a computer screen.
