This GEMS Brain Change Model, recognizes six different brain states or changes related to dementia. Learn about each of them to recognize the shifts in skills and abilities in any given moment.
With dementia, while the progression, pattern, and changes may look very different for each type of dementia, the movement through the GEMS is somewhat predictable. Your understanding of the remaining abilities at each step of this journey can make a world of difference.
