My Dad's Behavior Is Alienating Everyone
Article Abstract:
Embarrassing or inappropriate behavior suddenly displayed by older people may be the result of age-related dementia. A neurologist or geriatrician should be consulted to eliminate non-dementia causes of the behavior, such as changes in medication, endocrine problems, depression, or stroke. If dementia is confirmed, caregivers can cope by avoiding situations that provoke outbursts and trying non-drug treatments before resorting to medication.
