Have you spoken to his doctor or a hospital Social worker for resources? Not trying to be unhelpful but that would be my next step. It's not the same but when my mom was on hospice the social worker gave us a booklet on what was going to happen and when kind of. Sucked, but it did help all of to prepare and know what was coming. I imagine there is something similar for dementia.
Best advice I can think of other than that is just support your gf. Let her vent, do nice things for her even if it's as simple as doing the laundry to take some of the load off her back.
If she needs to step away and be done with him then so be it, but let that be her decision. And if she does, I'd still check on him if I were you. Good luck to you all.
