Dementia is a medical condition diagnosed in millions of elderly individuals worldwide, often leading to cognitive decline, emotional struggles, and behavioural challenges. At Antara Memory Care, we specialize in providing compassionate and expert care to manage these issues, ensuring dignity and comfort for our residents. We also focus on strategies to Manage Aggression in Dementia Care as a part of our comprehensive support.
Aggression and behavioural problems are common among individuals with dementia and can stem from confusion, fear, or physical discomfort. As cognitive functions decline, patients may struggle to communicate their needs, leading to frustration, anxiety, and anger. At Antara, we approach such situations with patience and expertise to help manage these challenges effectively.
Some of the most common behavioural issues in dementia that require attentive Dementia Care in India include:
Physical aggression: Hitting, kicking, pushing, or other violent behaviours.
Verbal aggression: Yelling, swearing, or making threatening statements.
Agitation and restlessness: Pacing, fidgeting, or inability to remain still.
Paranoia or delusions: Believing others have stolen from them or are trying to cause harm.
Sleep disturbances: Waking frequently at night and experiencing irritability or confusion.
