Behavioral dementia care
“Beneath every behavior, there is a feeling. And beneath each feeling is a need. And when we meet that need, rather than focus on the behavior, we begin to deal with the cause, not the symptom.”
Behavioral symptoms occur in most people who have dementia.
The factors that influence behaviors can be:
- biological
- psychological
- environmental
No one-size-fits-all intervention exists, and each person’s behavioral management plan will differ.
Behavioral plans are based on the individual needs of a patient.
