🧠 Understanding Repetitive Questions in Dementia

People living with dementia may sometimes repeat the same question or phrase many times. This behaviour is often known as looping.

It’s not always caused by memory loss alone. Looping can happen when a person has an emotional or physical need they’re struggling to express. They may feel unsettled or anxious, and the repetition is their way of trying to make sense of what’s happening around them.

🔹 Common causes:

Unmet needs (such as pain, hunger, loneliness)

Feeling confused or overwhelmed by the environment

Difficulty processing answers or new information

🔹 Helpful responses:

Stay calm and offer consistent reassurance

Use a gentle tone and clear language

Redirect attention or adjust surroundings if possible

Repetition is often a form of communication. It may be the only way the person can signal that something isn’t right.

When care is personal, life stays personal too.

At Home Instead Cuffley, Cheshunt & Harlow, we don’t just drop in, we show up. With warmth. With time. With care that honours the person, not just the need.

We take the time to get to know each client, their hobbies, their routines, their favourite way to spend an afternoon, and we build our support around that.

🫖 Familiar faces, not rotating shifts
📘 Time to chat, not just tick boxes
🕊️ Support that preserves dignity and choice

Because home care should feel like a helping hand, not a disruption.

Because Friendship Matters at Every Age 𐀪𐀪

World Friendship Day is a reminder that friendship has no age limit.

It’s the warmth of conversation, the comfort of being remembered, and the gentle reassurance of someone who’s there to listen. For many older adults, friendship can be found in everyday moments. A kind voice, a thoughtful chat, or a regular visit that brings familiarity.

Let’s all take a little time to recognise the friendships that continue to grow, even later in life. A simple phone call, a handwritten note, or a quiet moment shared can mean more than we realise.✨

28/07/2025

With July nearly behind us, now is a good time to check in on someone who may not always ask for company but quietly welcomes it.

If you’re visiting someone with memory loss, there’s no need to plan an activity. Calm, quiet time, like listening to music or flipping through an old magazine can offer a welcome sense of calm.

Your presence might bring more comfort than you realise.

1 in 3 adults over 65 fall at least once a year and that risk increases with age. But falling doesn’t have to be part of getting older.

🛋️ Fall Prevention Tip:
Take a walk through your home and look for simple hazards:
✔ Loose rugs
✔ Cluttered walkways
✔ Poor lighting
✔ Unstable furniture

Small adjustments can make a big difference to safety and confidence at home.

Did you know? Just 10 to 15 minutes of gentle sunshine a day can help your body produce Vitamin D, which supports bone strength and helps maintain a healthy immune system.

💡 In later life, it’s especially important to enjoy the sunshine safely. A stroll in the garden or sitting by the window can make a real difference. Don’t forget a sunhat and a little sunscreen if you're heading outdoors!

Home Instead Cuffley, Cheshunt & Harlow is here to help you enjoy the sunshine, safely.
