Personal Care for a dementia sufferer:
It is typical for a person with Alzheimer to require assistance with personal grooming tasks. However, this may be challenging if the individual is struggling with social anxiety, misunderstanding about who individuals are, and humiliation and shame related to more private routines like dressing and showering.
We teach our caregivers to attempt to comprehend any causes of worry or any consequent anger from a person who is suffering from a particular kind of dementia. They provide soothing assistance and motivation to put your beloved one at peace. Sometimes all it takes is providing more room or even walking them through the job.
