The Best Laid Plans
Studies show that maintaining daily routines and schedules is beneficial for those with Alzheimer’s disease or dementia. The disease makes it very difficult to learn new things or even remember the order of common tasks, so using established, consistent routines can be calming and reassuring. Daily routines include meal time, ordinary tasks and chores as well as activities your loved one enjoys; the basic things he or she has done day-in and day-out across a lifetime. Join the Life Enrichment and Dining Services professionals at Edgewood to learn new tips and tricks for effectively planning their day, which will help maintain function, reduce anxiety, allow for some independence and decrease the likelihood of Sundowners Syndrome (confusion, anxiety or aggression that sometimes happen later in the day).
