One of the most requested training topics that I provide in senior care facilities is managing behaviors of residents diagnosed with some type of dementia. Between 50% - 80% of residents in long-term care have dementia and over 60% have others psychological disorders including depression and anxiety. Many of these residents will exhibit various behaviors that are labeled “difficult” or “challenging”. While effectively dealing with dementia-related behaviors can be a challenge to the caregiver (and others), it is important to understand what behaviors really are before attempting to intervene.
