It also equips caregivers with the strategies they need to manage behaviours, provide safe care, and reduce tension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>These behaviors can include:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Depression<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Anxiety<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Confusion<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Aggression or anger<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Suspicion<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hallucinations<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pacing or wandering<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most important thing that caregivers need to remember is that challenging behaviors may not be entirely avoidable. It\u2019s also not the fault of the person with Alzheimer\u2019s or dementia. These behaviors are sometimes a common product of the disease. And, there is specialized support a caregiver can use to help keep challenging behaviors from escalating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5 <strong>Tips for Caregivers Dealing with Alzheimer\u2019s Disease and Difficult Behaviours<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While there is no guaranteed approach that will work with every person or situation, there are some methods that can help caregivers manage trying times:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#1. Staying calm:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;It\u2019s not uncommon for caregivers to feel attacked or helpless when they are caring for someone exhibiting difficult behaviors. Remembering that it isn\u2019t personal, and that it\u2019s a symptom of the disease, can help caregivers manage their emotions and avoid contributing to tense or difficult situations. Arguing or reasoning can often escalate an outburst, so it\u2019s necessary for caregivers to stay calm and supportive<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#2. Keeping a schedule:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Seniors that suffer from Alzheimer\u2019s disease and other dementias often find it reassuring to have a set schedule for meals, activities and daily tasks. Creating a schedule, and sticking to it as much as possible, can help prevent anxiety, confusion and anger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#3. Exercise:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Exercise, with approval from a physician, is a great stress reliever for both seniors and caregivers. And, participating in activities together helps foster important emotional connections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#4. Participating in activities:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether it\u2019s an enjoyable hobby, household chore or physician-approved exercise, participating in joyful activities has shown to help manage challenging behaviors. These can be pre-scheduled or introduced when difficult behaviors are recognized. For example, caregivers can ask for help folding laundry to ease anxiety or can play music or sing to calm someone feeling confused, angry or depressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#5. Mindful communication:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Caregivers shouldn\u2019t underestimate the power of communication. Caregivers can use soothing tones, speak in a friendly way and make eye contact to convey normalcy, understanding and compassion. This can help seniors experiencing anxiety or frustration to calm themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Comfort Keepers<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> Winnipeg Can Help<\/strong> <strong>Seniors with Alzheimer&#8217;s Disease<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Comfort Keepers<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>, we provide specific training for our caregivers and individualized care plans to provide care and support to seniors with Alzheimer\u2019s disease and to their families.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our specially trained Comfort Keepers engage clients in intellectual, physical and emotional interactions that complement medical treatment and improve the quality of life for everyone involved.
