Care starts with routine, patience, and safety. Keep the day simple and predictable, because changes can be confusing. Use short sentences, give one instruction at a time, and allow extra time for answers. Focus on comfort, familiar objects, good lighting, food, hydration, and regular sleep. Try not to argue when memory is wrong. Instead, redirect gently and reassure the person. Watch for signs of pain, hunger, fear, or boredom, since these often show up as difficult behaviour. If care becomes unsafe or overwhelming, get help from family, community services, or a doctor.
