I am working in a community setting. My client who suffers from dementia repeats the same question over and over. she is aware that her memory is failing her but more importantly her husband and daughter who are her full time carers are becoming very frustrated with her constant repeation of questions. she is aware of this and she becomes very upset and feels that they are leaving her out of the loop of life. upcoming events are forgotten and she feels that they do not tell her of these events. have you any ideas about remining herself and not feeling so diinfranchized. eg . maybe some sort of events calender? wendy mcalpine
You're quite the special angel here to assist everyone. It takes a special kind of person to deal with seniors - they are not given the respect or credit they so deserve to have lasted this long on this earth. To have witnessed such history is amazing. So many are forgotten about and I try everyday to share RAOKs (Random Acts of Kindness) with any person I see that could use it - thank you again for the great ideas which I hope to spread around the area to help make others know how special they are.
