Cistanche is very good for Alzheimer's disease

At present, there is no specific treatment drug for Alzheimer's disease. Once a patient is diagnosed, nursing care will run through the entire process of patient treatment and recovery. As a result, nursing has become an integral part of the care of Alzheimer's patients.

Appropriate care can delay the progression of Alzheimer's disease and improve their quality of life. Therefore, families with Alzheimer's disease patients should take into account the four aspects of patient, caregiver, room environment, and resources when caring at home, and comprehensively formulate a personalized care plan.

1. For the elderly with mobility, the caregiver can arrange for the elderly to do some things within their ability, such as regular toileting, washing, dressing, undressing, etc., and encourage and assist the elderly to participate in activities of interest, including playing chess, playing poker, and reading aloud. , singing, playing games, etc., so that the elderly can gain a sense of existence, value, and satisfaction in entertainment activities.

2. Caregivers need to know about Alzheimer's disease, communicate with patients in a calm tone, listen patiently, and understand the living habits and hobbies of the elderly. At the same time, the caregiver should take the medicine according to the schedule, supervise the taking of the medicine, and prevent the missed dose, multiple doses, and indiscriminate doses.

Caregivers need to master the ability to deal with the patient's mental and behavioral abnormalities. When the patient appears frightened, anxious, violent, and other behaviors, the caregiver should identify it in time, comfort and persuade moderately, and divert the attention of the elderly.

3. The patient's home environment should be comfortable, safe, and well-lit. The room should have fewer thresholds and more handrails, and the ground should be non-slip to prevent patients from falling. Caregivers also need to manage hazardous materials in the home to prevent accidental injury. The door should be installed with a combination lock that is not easy to open to prevent the patient from getting lost. Try to do as little moving and decoration as possible to maintain the stability of the patient's living environment.

4. Caregivers can make full use of family resources and social resources. Ask relatives, friends, etc. to help take care of the elderly and relieve their own pressure. At the same time, caregivers can also keep in touch with daycare centers, communities, hospitals, etc., and receive timely support and help.

It is important to note that caregivers should avoid excessive care when caring for patients with Alzheimer's disease, which will accelerate the rate of residual functional loss of the patient.
