1.Psychological Support and Anxiety Reduction

•Providing a safe and comfortable environment that helps reduce stress and confusion.
•Engaging patients in familiar and enjoyable activities that promote reassurance and emotional stability.
•Meeting the patient’s basic needs—such as nutrition, hydration, and personal care—to ensure comfort and maintain as much independence as possible.

•Avoiding arguments with the patient and adopting an approach based on patience, compassion, and understanding.

•Practicing attentive listening to identify the patient’s thoughts and detect any changes in behavior or emotional state.

Enhancing Physical and Cognitive Abilities

• Following up on appropriate physical exercises to maintain mobility and functional strength.

• Implementing memory exercises and cognitive stimulation activities to support cognitive functioning.

• Organizing conversational sessions that help patients express and release their emotions in a healthy manner.

Comprehensive Medical Follow-Up

• Monitoring any symptoms that appear, while considering the possibility of accompanying medical conditions such as diabetes, kidney disease, heart disease, and others.

• Identifying the underlying causes of any behavioral or health changes, since Alzheimer’s is not always the only source of disturbance.

• Supporting patients in adapting to their condition and encouraging participation in programs that stimulate memory and thinking, which helps reduce anxiety associated with forgetfulness.
