This disease causes devastating memory issues, behaviour changes, and cognitive problems that eventually affect the victim\u2019s employment and social relationships. Even basic activities of daily living eventually become a challenge.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"color: #2b285f;text-align: left\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000\">Chronic Illness and Alzheimer\u2019s Patients<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\">People who suffer from Alzheimer\u2019s have chronic health issues just the same as other adults in this country. People with dementia commonly have at least one other illness or condition. Medical problems most commonly seen are heart disease, stroke, diabetes, arthritis, retinal disorders, and chronic skin ulcers. Infections are also common in the elderly.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"color: #2b285f;text-align: left\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000\">Managing Health with Alzheimer\u2019s<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\">Managing one\u2019s health care becomes impossible as cognitive problems and memory loss worsen. Alzheimer\u2019s patients can\u2019t comprehend pharmaceutical or nutritional instructions, and they don\u2019t recognize that their symptoms are worsening.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"color: #2b285f;text-align: left\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000\">Caregivers Can Make a Difference<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\">When caring for an AD patient, you can make a difference as a watchdog and advocate for the older patient\u2019s safety and nutrition. You can provide adequate exercise and sleep, as well. Here are suggestions:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000\"><strong>Keep the living areas safe<\/strong>. Falls are common for seniors so grab bars secured in the bath area work well. A seat in the shower allows the patient to remain seated safely during a shower.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000\"><strong>Offer healthy food<\/strong>. Take care of elderly AD patients with homemade foods, especially for diabetes, high blood pressure, and cholesterol problems.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000\"><strong>Encourage regular exercise<\/strong>. Help the patient stay physically active as long as possible. A stationary bike, exercise balls, or stretch bands can be used. Walking is good for anyone!<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000\"><strong>Sleep challenges<\/strong>. Sleeping can be a challenge for seniors with Alzheimer\u2019s. Regular waking and sleeping times in a comfortable sleep environment will promote more restful sleep.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 style=\"color: #2b285f;text-align: left\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000\">Items to Remember<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\">Remember that AD patients won\u2019t be able to tell you when something hurts, so it\u2019s necessary to watch for nonverbal signs of pain or discomfort. Alzheimer\u2019s patients can\u2019t relate any new symptoms or problems with medications, so you\u2019ll have to keep an eye out.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\">Consult with the patient\u2019s family or doctor if additional help is required. Surround yourself with others who care, too<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>The Best Senior Home Care Provider in Victoria, BC, is Comfort Keepers<sup>\u00ae<\/sup><\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Firstly, if you are concerned about the health and well-being of your aging loved ones, we can help with 24-hour care.
