Here are 5 tips on caring for your loved one with Alzheimer’s. 🤝⬇️

🛡️ Create a safe environment
Remove tripping hazards, lock doors exiting the property and ensure potentially harmful items like scissors and knives are kept out of reach.

🗣️ Communicate clearly
Use direct and simple language. Speak slowly, maintain eye contact and give your loved one time to respond.

🔄 Establish a routine
Create a consistent daily routine that’s easy to follow. Familiarity can help reduce anxiety and confusion.

🕊️ Encourage independence
Only assist with tasks when necessary. Encourage your loved one to do what they can on their own to maintain a sense of independence.

🥰 Take care of yourself too!
Caring for someone with Alzheimer’s can be overwhelming. Make sure to seek support, take breaks and look after your own wellbeing.
