[quote=Anonymous]Loved one has late state dementia and mostly nonverbal. Yesterday I got a call from memory care that the loved one hit another resident (totally unprovoked) which is new. I feel so bad for the other resident...they were fine after it and because they have dementia they don't remember. Usually the loved one is aggressive but only during activities of daily living like dressing/bathing. Loved one is on Seroquel but it doesn't seem to help. Talked to the geripsych there about what next -- more meds to try I guess. Just feeling really powerless. While all the phases have been tough this is one of the harder ones.[/quote]
