Behavioural Consultation & Education

Several common behaviours may arise from dementia when the brain is no longer functioning normally, due to Alzheimer’s, Stroke, chronic alcohol abuse, or other causes. I help families, caregivers, and treatment teams develop plans to address common behaviours such as:

Resisting bathing
Sexually inappropriate behaviour
Refusal to eat or take medication
Aggression
Paranoia
Disturbed Sleep
Depression and Anxiety
Repetitive behaviours

In my work with elderly cognitively impaired veterans and civilians, I have acquired the expertise to assist families, professional caregivers, and treatment teams to properly understand these behaviours, identify triggers and other maintaining reasons for the behaviour, so that a workable, consistent, multidimensional behavioural plan can be implemented.
