It&#8217;s recommended to approach your loved one with Alzheimer\u2019s with patience. Although you recognize your parent and are happy to see them, they may not recognize you. Cautiously approach them as you acknowledge them by name. Expect that they will be confused or resist your approach and may feel threatened. Remember, this disease has taken away their memory and as sad as it is for you, it is more frightening for them.\u00a0 If you understand how to approach your loved one with Alzheimer&#8217;s, they will likely have a better reaction to you.<\/p>\n<h2>Steps to Approach Your Loved One<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-6682 \" title=\"Woman watching photographs with grandmother\" src=\"http:\/\/assistinghands.com\/14\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2016\/08\/Caregiver-Senior-Looking-at-Pictures-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Senior Looking at Pictures with Daughter\" width=\"577\" height=\"385\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assistinghands.com\/14\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2016\/08\/Caregiver-Senior-Looking-at-Pictures-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/assistinghands.com\/14\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2016\/08\/Caregiver-Senior-Looking-at-Pictures-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/assistinghands.com\/14\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2016\/08\/Caregiver-Senior-Looking-at-Pictures-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/assistinghands.com\/14\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2016\/08\/Caregiver-Senior-Looking-at-Pictures-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/assistinghands.com\/14\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2016\/08\/Caregiver-Senior-Looking-at-Pictures-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/assistinghands.com\/14\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2016\/08\/Caregiver-Senior-Looking-at-Pictures.jpg 1688w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 577px) 100vw, 577px\" \/><\/h2>\n<p>It is no longer like it was. You cannot walk into a room and have your parent hug and kiss you. It is more likely they will not recognize you and may turn to their care provider for protection. In fact, they may ask, \u201cWho are you? Do I know you?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>What you can do is enter the room slowly and wait for your parent to recognize you or be aware of your presence in the room. The best way to connect with your mom or dad is through eye contact. This is an excellent communication tool that will help break the silence. No matter how unsteady you may feel, keep smiling; a smile warms the heart and welcomes your loved one into your space.<\/p>\n<p>If needed, use your parent\u2019s name and introduce yourself.\u00a0 \u201cHi Ida, my name is Sally, I\u2019m your daughter.\u201d Wait for a response.<\/p>\n<p>If you receive no response, try again. \u201cIda, do you remember me? I\u2019m Sally, your daughter.\u201d Be sure you reword the question using your mom\u2019s name, your name and the reference to get her reaction.<\/p>\n<p>If words don\u2019t work, you may try music or singing a favorite song that mom liked, perhaps a song she sang to you when you were young. Music often unlocks memories and eases the brain. Professionals suggest a one step at a time approach will provide the links both you and your loved one are seeking.<\/p>\n<h2>Alzheimer&#8217;s and Dementia Care<\/h2>\n<p>If your loved one is in need of 24-hour home care, Assisting Hands Fort Myers is always available to help.
