Comment: If you have a family member with<br />
Alzheimer's or dementia, what can we do to help them<br />
in our hospital?<br />
• Train employees on how to care for patients with dementia.<br />
• Transportation<br />
• Family resources and support; ways to keep them at home.<br />
• Show them respect and help patient and family maintain dignity.<br />
• Better care and attention for those with dementia when in the hospital.<br />
• Do not let age or dementia be a factor in quality of care when in the ER.<br />
• Medications.<br />
• Compassion, love and care.<br />
• Keep doing what you are doing.<br />
• Listen to the POA/Caregivers! Don't speak to us as if patient is not there!<br />
