Q. What are the reasons of aggression in elderly people?What are the ways to control it?
A :- People with Alzheimer’s disease may become agitated or aggressive as the disease gets worse. Agitation means that a person is restless or worried. He or she doesn’t seem to be able to settle down. Agitation may cause pacing, sleeplessness, or aggression.
Most of the time, agitation and aggression happen for a reason. When they happen, try to find the cause. If you deal with the causes, the behavior may stop. For example, the person may have:
→Pain, depression, or stress
→Too little rest or sleep
→Constipation
→Soiled underwear or diaper
→Sudden change in a well-known place, routine, or person
✿Here are some ways you can cope with agitation or aggression:
★Reassure the person. Speak calmly.
★Listen to his or her concerns and frustrations. Try to show that you understand if the person is angry or fearful
★Allow the person to keep as much control in his or her life as possible.
★Try to keep a routine, such as bathing, dressing, and eating at the same time each day.
★Build quiet times into the day, along with activities.
