You cannot have clutter lying around

You cannot have clutter lying around all over the place when there are Alzheimers patients around. They mistake things for other things and that could be dangerous for you and for them. Clean up the house as often as you can so as to avoid such costly errors. It is very important to know the peculiarities of the patient that you are bringing into your home. There are basic characteristics that every Alzheimers sufferer has, but there are also specific instances in which they are different. You knowledge of this will do you much good. You don’t want foot stools and baskets lying all over on the floor; youve got an Alzheimers patient on the premises. The first part is to make them comfortable, and the second is to make matter convenient for them. And then third, you want to keep things out of their way. With plants on the floor you are asking for trouble. A person suffering from Alzheimers might see them as something else entirely. Papers also, and magazines lying around can cause them significant confusion. That is no way to carry out Alzheimers care. I am yet to meet an Alzheimers patient who knows that they are suffering from Alzheimers. For the most part, they just go about their lives in the best way that they think is normal; you are the person getting all worked. Caring for them means that you have to do all that thinking for them. You had better be prepared for it.
