Alzheimer’s Notes

Dealing With Challenging Behaviors of People With Alzheimer’s Disease.

by Liz Lewis on March 27th, 2008

Are you a caregiver having to deal with challenging behaviors ?

Then you should check out this great new resource I found.

It’s called the Challenging Behaviors Index and provides ideas and advice on how to deal with the varying difficult behaviors that can confront you.

The index is broken down into categories such as

- activities
- aggressive behaviors
- agitation
- behavior management strategies

Choose a category and you move to a page that will provide ideas on how to deal with situation. For example, under aggressive behaviors, suggestions are listed under headings such as ‘try to minimize stress’ and ‘modifying the environment’.

Most of these ideas are not new but sometimes it helps to re-read and re-learn.
