[quote=Anonymous]My mom in memory care has been on the receiving end of a closed fisted punch by one male resident and a grab-and-pinch by another female resident. Unfortunately dementia just does horrible things to the brain and things like this happen. It’s not like the kindergarten bully who may be able to be taught not to behave that way, it’s a disease that impacts the ability to understand. It’s horrible my mom was assaulted (twice) but I recognize that she could just have easily been the aggressor. I’m sorry you’re dealing with this OP. Medication management is helpful at this stage if they start getting aggressive. But please recognize this is a disease and I’m sure your mom would be absolutely mortified if she had any idea what she was doing.[/quote]
