PROMOTING INDEPENDENCE FOR PERSONS WITH DEMENTIA
Caregivers have a great responsibility in administering care to residents with dementia. The disease itself causes loss of judgment, reasoning, memory, and communication skills that can lead the resident with dementia into risk and danger if not properly managed. Activities of daily living can often be affected with the onset of dementia as well. Exceptional levels of observation, discernment, and patience are needed when working with residents with dementia, and workers in long term care facilities must be equipped with these skills.

~ Apply the principles of independence and dignity while assisting with ADLs
