10 Best Independent Living Communities in Eadytown, SC

I am not there for mother's cares, know she can be very uncooperative and difficult. Just wondering how dementia pts are approached for showers and changing clothes, especially when pts not cooperative. Like, It's time to take your shower, or change your clothes. "This doesn't work. Like I said, I don't know if this is how they do it or not. I do know you need to kind of sneak up on them, as a manner of speaking, and not keep using terms of shower, and changing clothes. Keep the distracted while trying to accomplish task. I know this doesn't always work, and that my mother can be impossible at times. I am speaking from experience with my mother, and from over 50 years of nursing experience, mostly geriatric and management, and dementia clients. Not trying to be bossy or critical, but know with young people, they are not aware of many things, maybe not enough training about approaches for those with cognitive impairments.

The activities they provided were things like birthday parties, wine tasting parties, taco parties, ice cream parties. This community was very clean, large rooms, the staff was terrific. The food was good. They also provide transportation to doctors appointments.
