Make Time for Fun

A secret to aging in place with dignity is to know how to have fun no matter your age. Make time for your favorite hobbies with others or by yourself. Having no time for relaxation, you might easily get upset and stressed.

Dementia Carers’ Escalating Responsibilities

Patients with dementia will become more dependent over time. To cope and reduce your frustrations as the caregiver, stay flexible to your routine and expectations.

10/18/2021

How to Make Mealtimes Easier for Dementia Patients

-Stick to a routine. As much as possible, eat at the same time every day.

-Hydrate them more frequently by offering them small glasses of water every now and then throughout the day.

-Make the environment calmer, such as removing unnecessary clutter from the table.

-Use the utensils that are easy to use such as white plates instead of patterned, spoons instead of forks, bowls instead of plates, or fingers instead of utensils.

-Cut the servings into bite-sized pieces or make them finger foods.

Eat Healthily

It’s easy not to eat healthily when you’re not feeling your best. Most seniors, in fact, find it difficult to prepare healthy meals because of their medical issues. If this is your case, professional caregivers can greatly help.

Care for the Carer

Just as you are caring for your elderly loved one, you need care too. When you are your family member’s informal caregiver, it’s easy to get drained. Getting respite care can give you the break you need.

Ways to Cope with Traumatic Brain Injury

-Join a support group. Make sure to ask your rehabilitation therapist or doctor what support groups can help you talk your issues out, teach you new coping techniques, and give you emotional support.

-Follow a routine. Keep things in their places and take the same routes to the destinations you frequently visit. Having a consistent schedule can help you avoid confusion.

-Write it down so you can keep a record of people’s names, important events, tasks, and others that you may find difficult to remember.

Look After Your Mental Health

Taking care of your mental health also means taking care of your body. Speak your feelings out, stay active, eat well, learn how to deal healthily with stress, quiet your mind, do something you enjoy and are good at, and get plenty of sleep.

You Still Need Good Sleep Each Night

Do you have trouble falling asleep every night? Older adults, like their younger counterparts, will still be needing seven to nine hours of sleep each night. Try following a regular sleep schedule to improve your sleep.

Creating a Safe Environment for Dementia Patients

-Prevent falls by decluttering the home. Remove extension cords, scatter rugs, or stacks of newspapers and magazines that go against the patients’ way. Install grab bars or handrails in critical areas.

-Check water temperature. Make sure to lower the thermostat on the hot-water heater to prevent burns.

-Use locks, especially on cabinets that contain potentially dangerous substances, such as toxic cleaning products, medicine, alcohol, etc.

-Take fire safety precautions by keeping lighters and matches out of reach. Keep the fire extinguishers accessible.
