Download Are you worried about Dementia

People with Lewy body dementia may experience difficulties with attention and walking, hallucinations or sleep disorders.

In the later stages people with Lewy body dementia may experience unusual behaviours such as agitation, restlessness or shouting out. They may also be more prone to falls as a consequence of increasing difficulty with walking, and experience problems with speaking and swallowing.
