My grandma have dementia, ever now and then, she'll doesn't even remember she's in the hospital, she cannot do stuff on her own. It was hard for us to understand, but watching this makes a lot of sense. Thank you for this video, hope everyone have a nice day ❤️
As my mom's dementia caregiver for the past 9+ years, I had the opposite response. It makes NO sense what they are claiming. It is not true at all in my mom's case. She CANNOT follow instructions.
My father was placed in hospice last October with congestive heart failure coupled with dementia. Made a big rebound physically but the vascular dementia is growing worse. Body is stronger but the mind is failing quickly. This is unknown territory.
So glad you're giving training- presumably also Counseling, for the helpless family of Advanced Dementia patients! 'We' have to move on , accept the loss of oour loved one with Alzeimers & ensure they are getting care, company & following a schedule, incl physiotherapy.
My wife of 65 years has this in early stages …I don’t want her in a nursing home but hospice wont help unless someone has 6 months or less to live ….very hard to determine in a dementia patient ….how can I get assistance for her at home if I can’t provide it (I’ll be 89 on May 23rd but am in excellent health but that won’t last forever.
My mum has dementia, shes horrible now always telling me to fo , she wont bath ..wants to hit me all the time ..wont sleep trys to get at the house and walk the streets ..awful 😢and heartbreaking 💔...
And they make it sound like they can "treat" your mom and make all the difference in the world. I understand what you are going through. I live a similar nightmare, although my mom doesn't hit me, she does refuse to bath and gives me hell when I do bathe her. I believe that the medical establishment considers these patients as a money spigot and they want to keep them alive as long as possible to suck all the money they can out of them, all the while, claiming to be helping them, when they clearly are NOT.
@@dewboy910Totally! I’ve been doing this for 7 years. We have more compassion for animals! When they are very sick and know they have zero chance, we put them down! We should be able to write up a document where we choose to be un alived if we get that wretched diagnosis. Memory Care goes for 8-13 thousand a month. Too much money for that industry to give up.
Taking the best care possible for the aged is “all for nothing” ???? My wife and I have been married since she was 19 and I was 23 (now 84 ..85 in March and 88 (89 in May) and I certainly don’t think it’s “all for nothing”
I totally agree! It is crazy and all for nothing. But the medical establishment considers these patients as a money spigot and they want to keep them alive as long as possible to suck all the money they can out of them, all the while, claiming to be helping them, when they clearly are NOT. So it's not all for nothing. It is all for MONEY. Reply
Bull shit! Once dementia gets to the last stages, there are no "treatments". "an instructor calls out instructions to follow". Are you kidding me? You can call out all the instructions to my mom you want, but she will not "follow". Maybe with other diseases, Hospice can "treat" the patient is such a manner, but not with full blown dementia. I've been my mom's sole caregiver for the past 9+ years. I wish this was true, but it's NOT!

My mom is a bedbound stroke survivor with vascular dementia and she receives hospice care at home

Same here

God Bless These People 🙏 So many families need help with their loved ones so they can stay at home 🙏

You use your life savings to hire caregivers.

Truth. these pseudo-treatments (for all kinds of diseases) are just an excuse to bill
