Dementia Care

DEMENTIA CARE

Dementia is a general term for a decline in mental abilities severe enough to interfere with daily life. It's not a normal part of aging, and it affects memory, thinking, reasoning, and behavior. The most common cause of dementia is Alzheimer's disease, however other diseases such as vascular or Lewy body dementia can also play a role in the development of this condition. At Care Givers Pune, we understand these challenges and are dedicated to providing the highest quality dementia care for elderly in their own homes ensuring their safety, well-being, and continued quality of life.

What is the best way to deal with elderly dementia patients?

There’s no single “best way” to deal with dementia patients, as each individual will have unique needs.

  1. Patience and understanding: Dementia affects memory, thinking, and communication, so it’s important to be patient and understanding. Speak slowly and clearly, give them time to process information, and avoid correcting or arguing with them.
  2. Create a safe and familiar environment: Reduce clutter and hazards from the home, and establish a regular daily routine. This can help reduce confusion and anxiety.
  3. Encourage activities and social interaction: Engaging in activities they enjoy, such as gardening, crafts, or music, can stimulate the mind and improve mood. Social interaction with family and friends is also important for mental well-being.
  4. Provide support and assistance: Be there to help them with daily tasks like bathing, dressing, and eating. As dementia progresses, they may need more and more assistance.
  5. Seek professional help: If you’re struggling to cope or need additional support, don’t hesitate to seek professional help from a doctor, therapist, or social worker.

How should you communicate with a person with dementia?

When communicating with someone with dementia:

  • Speak clearly and slowly: Use short, simple sentences and avoid complicated vocabulary.
  • Make eye contact and smile: This shows you’re engaged and attentive.
  • Listen patiently: Give the person time to respond without interrupting.
  • Avoid arguing or correcting: It’s more important to be supportive and understanding.
  • Stay positive and encouraging: Celebrate their successes and focus on what they can still do.
  • Respect their feelings and validate their experiences: Don’t dismiss their concerns or tell them they’re wrong.
