Why is it that a person with dementia-related memory loss can still seem to be affected by something that they can't remember? Jenny asks whether there is any point in taking her sister out for a nice day, if her sister doesn't remember anything about what she's done? In this episode, we explain why the effects of experiences (positive and negative) can linger in someone, even when they are unable to recollect or describe that event. We end with some simple tips for recognising the effects of unconscious memories and using it to our advantage.
