I hope you’re enjoying my series of articles on the five senses. When we understand how senses change with age, we can take steps to provide a better quality of life for our residents.
In case you missed the previous articles, you can find information on the sense of smell in August’s post. I also wrote about the sense of hearing in this post from September.
