Cracking the Code: Understanding Dementia Behavioral Triggers


Listen Later

Every behavior tells a story – but are you listening? In this powerful episode, the fourth and final in our Alzheimer's Awareness Month series, Host and Dementia Coach Dawn Platt helps you crack the code on behavioral triggers in Alzheimer's and other dementias. Discover why agitation, wandering, and resistance aren't random acts of defiance, but desperate attempts to communicate unmet needs in a confusing world. Dawn shares her proven detective work approach to identifying hidden triggers – from sensory overload to uncomfortable clothing – and teaches you how to use observation, validation, and simple environmental changes to reduce distress for both you and your loved one. Stop reacting to behaviors and start understanding them.
