How could you explain to her the different types of dementia without making her feel embarrassed? It is rare that there is just one way to respond to a scenario or situation, so do not consider that the response you have chosen to this scenario will be judged as right or wrong.

You do not need to submit this task for assessment unless asked to do so by your tutor.
