[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I knew a man with dementia who almost killed his roommate in confusion and caused thousands of dollars in damage pulling fixtures out of the walls of memory care.[b] Sedating him was the only way to keep him and those around him safe.[/b] [/quote] It probably wasn’t. The idea that dementia patients must be sedated to a zombie like state is no longer the standard of care. Psychiatric medication is often [i]part[/i] of the plan, but that’s it. Google person centered care.[/quote]
