Dementia Caregiver Tips

If you are caring for a parent or loved one with dementia at home, especially in the beginning, it can be difficult to know where to start or how to provide the best care. Some tips for helping to provide care, according to Alzheimers.gov, include:

• Try to follow a daily routine, such as bathing and eating at the same time.
• Create to-do lists and calendars.
• Have a system that reminds the person to take medications regularly.
• Use helpful medical and mobility devices, such as shower chairs.
• Plan daily activities the person enjoys and do them simultaneously every day.
• Loose-fitting clothing without laces, buttons, or buckles can be much easier to manage when dressing and undressing. Consider elastic waistbands and fabric fasteners.
• Serve meals consistently.
• Be gentle and respectful with your loved one throughout their day. Explain to them what you are doing and the steps involved.
