💙 Thank you, Podology - Healthcare for feet ! 💙
A huge thank you to Podology of Saltburn for inviting us to deliver a Dementia Information Session this afternoon.
Podology's team offer essential treatments such as podiatry, nail care, skin health treatments, reflexology, and holistic therapies that enhance wellbeing, mobility, and comfort, especially for older adults.
Understanding dementia is so important in their work because:
👣 Many people with dementia may struggle to explain pain or discomfort in their feet or legs.
👣 Treatments like podiatry and reflexology require a gentle, patient, and person-centred approach to avoid causing distress.
👣 Knowing how dementia affects memory, communication, and perception helps practitioners adapt their care to ensure clients feel safe, respected, and calm.
Thank you again to the fantastic Podology team for your commitment to supporting Dementia Friendly Redcar and Cleveland and the people living with dementia in our area. 💙
