UNIVERSITY OF MIAMI School of Nursing NUR 624: Lecture Oct. 17, 2003 Dementia and Cognition Page Safety== home safety, driving, compliance Families often blame themselves or blame patient for behavior they cannot control. Caregivers need to get into education of what to expect. They need to have time to grieve and accept this sudden change in normalcy. Advance planning of wills, proxies appointed, advance directives of care—living wills etc. Patient’s family has the right to know what is happening and what to expect. The burden of care directly and indirectly will fall on them. New medications do allow for care.
