[quote=Anonymous]I feel for you. Is your Dad still somewhat cognizant? From my research, the memory care places appear to be more for final stage dementia when there is no memory left and the violent phase is done. Some assisted living places may consider him. Just passing along advice I was given: - Forget about reasoning with him. It'll just make it worse. - Noise will be very upsetting so minimize activities - They get exhausted towards twilight and will be more prone to violent attacks then. Adjust the daily routine accordingly. Good luck. We are struggling with this too. I understand this phase can last 1-2 years.[/quote]
