Have you ever felt overwhelmed trying to manage the challenging behaviors of your loved one with dementia? You're not alone.
In this episode, Lizette shared valuable insights and practical advice tailored specifically for caregivers like you.
One key point discussed was the importance of identifying the triggers behind certain behaviors. For example, anxiety-driven psychosis in dementia patients can often be managed by addressing the root cause of their anxiety.
One caregiver, Hilda, shared her experience with her 96-year-old mother, explaining how early intervention and attention to her mother’s needs prevented psychotic episodes.
Ultimately, the goal is to empower caregivers with strategies that reduce stress and improve the quality of care.
Whether it's through adjusting routines, validating their loved one’s experiences, or maintaining a calm and positive demeanor, these insights provide a fresh perspective on managing the challenges of dementia care.
