Treatment of dementia depends on its cause. In the case of most progressive dementias, including Alzheimer's disease, there is no cure and no treatment that slows or stops its progression. But there are drug treatments that may temporarily improve symptoms. Keep a journal to determine how frequently you go to the bathroom. Delay urination with small intervals. Once you feel the need to pee, see if you can hold off for five minutes and work your way up. Schedule trips to the bathroom. Perform Kegel exercises regularly.

First, drink water strictly by thirst. That is a natural law which we have distorted. Secondly, get an ultrasound done for residual urine. Sometimes retention can lead to this. Thirdly, check if she remains constipated. Best is to see a urologist with all these information. He will do the needful.
