Diagnosing dementia: My relative won't go to the doctor

It's not uncommon for people to not want to go to the doctor. They may think there is nothing wrong or they may be aware of a problem but want it to go away. Unfortunately the problem won't go away and you may want to help your relative visit the doctor to find out what the problem is. In this edition of the podcast we talk about getting a relative to visit the doctor.
