Addressing Personality Changes in Dementia
Personality changes are one of the most challenging aspects of dementia care. Patients may exhibit unusual behaviors such as making odd statements, forgetting hygiene routines, repeating themselves, or becoming paranoid. These changes can be frustrating and confusing for caregivers.
Understanding why these behaviors occur and learning strategies to manage them can significantly improve the caregiving experience. Effective strategies include not pointing out inaccuracies, using distraction techniques, keeping unsafe items out of sight, supervising hygiene routines, and spending quality time together.
