本系列关于急性护理中的痴呆症患者的第五篇也是最后一篇文章审查了挑战性行为。入院,再加上不熟悉的环境和记忆问题,对痴呆症患者来说可能会令人恐惧和迷失方向。这可能会导致被认为是“破坏性的”或“难以相处”的行为。医院环境或护理实践的各个方面可能会导致可能被误解的问题,并导致具有挑战性的行为。工作人员应设法了解挑战性行为的原因,评估可能的原因,并使用策略来加强对这些患者的熟悉,并将痛苦降至最低。
The fifth and final article in the series on patients with dementia in acute care examines challenging behaviour. Hospital admission, combined with unfamiliar surroundings and memory problems, can be frightening and disorientating for those with dementia. This can lead to behaviour which is perceived as 'disruptive' or 'difficult'. Aspects of the hospital environment or care practice can contribute to problems that may be misinterpreted and lead to challenging behaviour. Staff should seek to understand the cause of challenging behaviour, assess the possible causes and use strategies to reinforce familiarity and minimise distress for these patients.
