Caring for a Loved One with Alzheimer’s Disease

Here are a few tips: *Incorporate light exercise into their daily routine. This improves cardiovascular health, prevents muscle loss, and can improve sleep and bathroom habits. Daily walks are one of the easiest ways to add exercise. There is evidence that regular physical activity can lead to improvement in cognitive function. *Practice good sleep hygiene. Many Alzheimer’s patients have a disrupted circadian rhythm which can lead to sleep disorders and changes in behaviour. *Try music therapy. Playing your loved one’s favourite song can evoke a strong response or memory. Music can reduce feelings of anxiety and depression and help your loved one better express their emotions.
