Abstract: This academic article aims to serve as a guideline for preventing dementia in the elderly. As people age, brain degeneration often leads to memory decline, which can result in dependence and become a burden on the family. Therefore, preventive measures against dementia are essential, focusing on non-pharmacological approaches. These include behavioral changes, environmental care, and psychological support, such as brain exercise through finger exercises. This method promotes brain development and increases the production of neurons. Moreover, when the brain is continuously stimulated, it enhances memory function, enabling the elderly to take care of themselves and perform daily activities independently without relying on family members or caregivers. This also reduces medical expenses. The content of this article includes discussions on dementia, brain exercise, dimensions of brain function and methods for brain training, finger exercises, the relationship between finger exercises and dementia, recommended finger exercise techniques, and the benefits of brain exercise using fingers. It is essential for the elderly to practice these activities regularly and consistently to effectively prevent dementia.
