You have to understand it as the disease progresses, they’re going to lose more control.
The way I see it, you have to almost think of it as returning almost like a child.
Remember, it’s a disease, and they have no control. You have to be very tolerant of a lot of things that would seem annoying to most people.
Remember, their health and well-being is your job. And there’s going to be a lot of issues around that that you have to adapt to.
I think the most important thing is when you have a break, find someone and play video game, watch a movie, or just listen to them about their day to break up the stress.
Finding a support system, and just holding each other together can make Everything
Are used to take care of my mother, and it was just Vitas, me, my older sister, and my brothers would only come maybe once a month.
Having people there, with you, to share in it, can literally mean everything
very lonely, need more seniors togethely living, spend time unitedly is better than this single life
ОтветитьThis is good but it no longer will work with my mother in law, she is starting to get aggressive. She won't listen to reason or compromise and than she starts yelling that she is not an animal to be told what to do. She's 100 years old and used to be so sweet and passive, kind, now she is totally opposite. She has a temper that was never there before. She evens threatens to slap us if we don't leave her alone.
ОтветитьUCLA, do you have a certificate in dementia caregiving?
ОтветитьMy daughter told me I repeat myself conversations I did not realise
ОтветитьI have a German brother in law who has alzheimers and he was and still is an alcoholic who keeps asking if there is something to drink around here. He started drinking from the olive oil bottle thinking it was wine. An alcoholic with alzheimers is worse than a regular person with dementia.
ОтветитьIt makes sense repetitive behaviors can be out of boredom and anxiety, try not to be annoyed over it. I"m not a caregiver or anything but I deal with my own repetitive behaviors like swinging my arms or playing with my hair.
Ответить😘
ОтветитьI was speaking to my friend recently when she was testifying to me about her encounter with Alzheimer Disease and how she got cured with Dr Madida herbs supplements«(•.•)»
ОтветитьWait. The only problem here is that the caretaker is rude... Why would you immediately jump to anger?
Also, I WISH my mother was only tapping her hands - instead I am working with 8 hour yelling sessions that I can't seem to understand what is wrong with her.
Give him a rosary.
ОтветитьThese are SO idealized. All of these videos end with the patient COOPERATING. Good luck finding cooperative boomers.
ОтветитьWow thank you
ОтветитьShe is right not all behaviour are bad never get someone to stop stemming unless it’s dangerous
ОтветитьWhy am I watching this, I don’t even have any family members that have these issues
ОтветитьIm caregiver i lost my temper i feel so stressed😥
ОтветитьGet him a drum kit ! He may be a fan of DJ Fontana
ОтветитьSo what do you do to help a double leg amputee with no prosthetics blind in one eye and is jumping out of bed because shes wants to go home. She cant see the door, shes in her home of the last 55 years with pictures all around her.
ОтветитьI feel so bad when she yells at him and holds his hands down, and then he takes them and holds his own hands, as if they've been burned.. So much better the other way. It hurts to see lonely, sad old people.
ОтветитьIf only the caregiver doesn't need to do anything else but accompanying the patient...
Ответитьthis bitch a reptile
ОтветитьUnrealistic....My 89 y/o father would never listen to that....he would get combative, insist he stay in that chair, and tell me too bad if his hand tapping is annoying.
ОтветитьI’m checking out courses about working in the health sector especially for dementia. My grandfather has it and I really would like a career change. This video is a help thanks.
ОтветитьI like the advice to include the dementia patient in my work. Oh yeah. That's spot on that is. Man, if you thought the woman was mean and pissed off at the beginning of the tapping, just wait and see what she's like when she "includes" him in her work. What crap.
ОтветитьThese suggestions don't always help! I did this with a few residents in the nursing home and they still did the same behaviors
ОтветитьOk but the music she put on sounded like The Caretaker
ОтветитьI admire anyone who can do this I personally couldn't handle it
ОтветитьYes am going thru this with my mother
ОтветитьLegit
ОтветитьHud
ОтветитьExplanations for some of the puzzling behavior of folks with dementia offer help for caregivers in identifying why the patient is engaged in such behavior.
ОтветитьLet's face it. Health professionals really do not understand much about specifically why things happen the way they do in dementia - I mean, the behaviors. It could be hundreds of reasons or no reasons at all. After all, brain cells are dead or dying so essentially there are multiple disconnections going on at once. It's like static in a radio signal. That's it. An unclear pathway...or basically a blocked pathway and 'signals' or 'thoughts' or 'memories' get dropped, backed up and/or completely distorted. Unless, it is obvious, like incontinence or constipation, you are not going to know why the person w dementia is acting a certain way. So just do the best you can to keep them comfortable and non-agitated. Don't make them do things they express that they do not want to do. Keep sound at a level they like. Written in medical pages is: that a number like over 50% of regularly aging people or dementia patients experience delirium after just hospitalization and/or surgeries and they have NO idea why and yet it is a serious condition that often expedites the speed of mental decline. So, go figure. They know less than one would think.
ОтветитьMy brother-in-law will unload a drawer, put things neatly back into the drawer, close the drawer, then start all over again. Or he has a box with random things, business cards, letter opener, key ring, etc. He goes through the cards and puts them in the box, then does it again. While riding in the car, it was on the floor, then the glove box, then held awhile. I wish I could know what goes through his mind. What is deep rooted or prewired.
ОтветитьI really like that this video demonstrated ways to distract the person with repetitive behaviors. Thanks!
Ответитьdude needs some headphones and a fire mixtape
ОтветитьAnd do what with the magazines? Oh just look at them.
