Focus on emotions when responding to repetitive behavior
|
|
|
A person living with Alzheimer's may repeat a word, question or activity or undo something that has just been finished. They may be looking for comfort, security and familiarity; when responding, think about how the person is feeling rather than react to the behavior.
