<s>[INST] My father in law has dementia and I have been told that we should keep him in once place at all times. He has visited his former companion bi-weekly for a day or two and then returns home to live with us. Is this or could this be making his dementia worse? [/INST] hiThanks for choosing healthcare magicDementia is never worsen with such activities. These activities would rather help him u remind old memories. When he would go with them or stay with them, that would help him u remind his old skill. there is nothing harm in it, but never let him go alone anywhere or work on dangerous tool. Thanks </s>
