What every Caregiver should practice:

By following these steps, a caregiver can avoid ignoring or dismissing your loved one's feelings and experiences and ensure that he or she feels heard and understood.

Listen actively: Encourage the person to share their thoughts and feelings, and actively listen to what they have to say. Show that you understand and acknowledge their feelings.

Empathize: Put yourself in the person's shoes and try to understand their perspective. Show that you care and are there to support them.

Validate the person's feelings: Let your loved one know that his/her feelings are normal and understandable.

Avoid interrupting or talking over the person: Let the patient speak without interruption and don't talk over them.

Avoid using dismissive language or tone: Avoid using language or tone that can come across as dismissive or critical of the patient's feelings.

Show respect: Show the person that you respect their feelings and experiences.

Encourage them to express themselves: Encourage him/her to express themselves through writing, art, or music.

Seek professional help if needed: If your loved one is experiencing severe emotional distress or behavioral changes, seek professional help from a therapist or counselor as soon as possible.

As a Dementia Caregiver, it can be difficult to keep your stress levels in check. Here are some practical tips to help you cope:

1. Remember to take time for yourself and do something that gives you joy, like listening to music or reading a book.
2. Don't forget to stay connected with friends and family; they can provide emotional support and distraction from the daily challenges of caregiving.
3. Make sure you get enough rest and exercise - it's essential for maintaining both physical and mental health.
