[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A therapist should not take this on. You need a geriatric psychiatrist.[/quote] This. What stage of Alzheimers? Once it's past early, you calm someone with distraction, music, even art, not with talk therapy which requires a certain level of reasoning skills and short term memory. Meds also need to changed or adjusted, there is no maxing out. You try new ones or combos. Is the person at Memory Care, AL or at home?[/quote]
