Our Integrated Dementia Care & Geriatric Cognitive Rehabilitation

Dementia is a progressive neurological condition that affects memory, thinking, behaviour, communication, and the ability to perform everyday activities. Commonly seen in older adults, it can significantly impact independence, safety, emotional well-being, and overall quality of life. Conditions such as Alzheimer's disease and other cognitive disorders require structured, supportive, and patient-centred care to slow functional decline and enhance daily functioning.

At Prana Rehabilitation Centre, our Dementia Care and Geriatric Rehabilitation program is designed to provide compassionate, structured, and therapeutic support that enhances cognitive function, maintains independence for as long as possible, and ensures safety in daily life. Our approach focuses on preserving existing abilities, improving engagement in meaningful activities, and creating a calm, predictable, and supportive environment for both patients and caregivers.

We also recognize that dementia affects not only memory but also emotional health, behaviour, and family dynamics. Many patients may experience confusion, anxiety, agitation, or social withdrawal, while caregivers often face emotional stress and burnout. Our integrated care model addresses both patient and caregiver needs through structured rehabilitation and continuous support.

Our Dementia Care Program Includes

• Cognitive stimulation therapy — memory, attention, and thinking exercises
• Orientation training — time, place, and person awareness
• Routine-based activity planning for stability and reduced confusion
• Functional task training for daily living activities (ADLs)
• Gentle physical activity and mobility exercises
• Balance training and fall prevention strategies
• Sensory stimulation activities — music, touch, visual cues
• Behavioural management strategies and communication training
• Psychological support, emotional care, and reassurance techniques
• Cognitive assessment and neuropsychological evaluation to understand cognitive strengths and plan personalized intervention
• Cognitive workbooks and structured home practice programs to support memory, attention, and thinking skills
• Caregiver education, training, and ongoing support guidance
• Risk reduction and home safety education
• Naturopathy support including simple yoga-based movements, breathing exercises (pranayama), relaxation techniques, and calming meditation practices

Psychological Rehabilitation and Caregiver Support

As part of our integrated approach, we emphasize psychological rehabilitation and caregiver support including psychoeducation, stress management strategies, communication techniques, and guidance on handling behavioural changes. This helps reduce caregiver burden while improving the quality of care provided at home.

We also focus on risk reduction strategies such as fall prevention, wandering prevention, medication adherence support, and environmental modifications to ensure safety and reduce complications in daily living.
