Caregivers: What do you do when your loved one is having a rough time?
Strategies, distractions, redirects... what works for you and your loved one?
Take her for ice cream, her favorite thing. Go for a walk, play with a jigsaw puzzle (300 pieces), color, listen to music of the 1950s, watch an old tv show from the 60s, go visit someone, drive by a lake or her old neighborhood.
These are all great things and at one time or another we do that here, too. I have learned to love classic movies and television. Our TV lives in black and white now. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Scott Team member
Have their favorite snack or treat available. Music was always my go to for my mom. Her Era music.
, those are great ideas! Music is a great way to connect, and food is and always will be the way to a heart connection. I always find my people's favorite foods and learn how to make them if I don't know. - Warmly, Donna (Team Member)
