Mom has been living in Assisted Living for almost 3 years now due to dementia. She has always had a "mean streak" but lately has been extremely mean and has been lashing out at other residents. AL phoned and said they had to seperate her from another resident this week. Have talked with her Phychologist and GP Dr. and they have added an anti-anxiety med to her medication regimen at mid day (lunch). Any suggestions for management of this behavior other than medication or in addition to medication? Thank you!
I wish you success.
