Dementia Sign #9: No Sense Of Direction
A sense of direction is a sense of spacial awareness, and people with dementia often begin to struggle with their spacial awareness and depth perception. As a result of this, they may begin to lose their sense of direction.
This can be observed when people have difficulty navigating places that they frequent. They may also forget the location of certain landmarks and have a much harder time following directions. They may also not remember how to get around their house, or which rooms are marked by which doors.
