What should we pay attention to when taking care of the elderly, and how to take care of the elderly

Taking care of the elderly should pay attention to the following aspects:

1. Psychological comfort.

The old man is really the same as the child, both simple and sensitive, commonly known as the "old child", the old man is especially disgusted, because of his clumsiness, slow response by the children disliked.

So take care of the elderly should really have more patience, like taking care of their own children, if the old people are stubborn, they can only find a way to communicate with them, can not lose their temper, or coax or deceive, because people to the elderly is very pitiful, each of us will have this day, so treat the elderly well, is to be kind to yourself tomorrow.

2. Physical care.

The elderly are becoming more and more simple-minded, and they should communicate more with the elderly often, don't let the elderly worry about their children, go out with a sense of safety, or accompany the elderly to travel, don't listen to strangers casually, or answer strangers' **.

One of the biggest cognitive characteristics of the elderly is that the past is vivid, and the near scene is blurred. The traces of decades are deeply imprinted in their hearts, and the sufferings and joys of the past immerse them in distant memories, which is a very important spiritual pillar to support their lives.

And most of the people and things in front of them, they can't remember much. Due to the long-term living alone, coupled with some unpleasant experiences in the past, the elderly may have left a psychological shadow, and most of the elderly are withdrawn and eccentric. This requires us to redouble our enthusiasm and patience to melt the hearts of the elderly and gain their trust ......

So, how do you talk to an elderly person? 1. Attitude: Be amiable, approachable, and always have a smile on your face, so that the elderly can feel your intimacy; 2. Location:

Don't let the old man raise his head or talk to you from a distance, then the old man will feel that you are high and unapproachable, you should bend down to talk to the old man at close range, and the old man will feel equal to you and feel that you value him; 3. Communicate with your heart: your eyes should be fixed on each other's eyes, and your gaze should not wander, so that the elderly feel that you do not pay attention to him, and the same sex can touch each other's hands to talk; 4. Language: The speed of speaking should be relatively slow, the intonation should be moderate, some elderly people are deaf (hard of hearing), they must be louder, but they also need to look at the other party's expression and reaction to judge the other party's needs;

5. Understand the situation: to understand the temper and preferences of the elderly, you can inquire in advance or further understand them in the future mutual contact; 6. Topic selection: Choose topics that the elderly like, such as hometown, relatives, things when they were young, TV programs, etc., avoid mentioning topics that the elderly don't like, you can also talk more about yourself first, so that the elderly can trust you before other topics; 7. Sincere appreciation:

What should we pay attention to when we come into contact with the elderly?

1. Safety: always put it first! It is necessary to slide carefully, help the elderly, and master the correct support method; Wheelchair, when the elderly sit on it, be sure not to let the wheelchair move and cause it to sit empty, push the wheelchair slowly, put the feet of the elderly well, put their hands on their thighs, and do not leave the range of the handrail!

2. Most of the old people have a bad memory, so avoid asking: "Do you remember me?" The old man didn't want others to say that he had a bad memory, so he said:

I'm coming to see you again! The elderly feel that they are taken seriously and will be much happier. 3. Respect the habits of the elderly

Do not touch the furnishings and other items in the elderly room. 4. Don't just give the elderly what you bring: for example, diabetics should have low sugar and kidney disease.

and people with high blood pressure should control salt.

Pay attention to the ease of movement of the elderly.

In the process of taking care of the elderly, we must pay attention to the convenience of the elderly's movement, some of the elderly are not very comfortable in their movements, if there is no elevator, it will be very difficult to go up and down the stairs purely, so it is best for the elderly to live in a house with an elevator to go up and down.

Check your body more, make time to spend more time with them, be considerate of their difficulties, and pay attention to their ease of travel.

It's a complex question, and it has to be talked about in many ways, and if you want to write it, you can write a booklet. Among them, according to their physical condition, they are divided into healthy and sick, those who can take care of themselves and those who cannot take care of themselves. There are also those who are modest and those who are not modest (who cannot understand you). You could write a book.

This still depends on the physical condition of the elderly, we can regularly take the elderly to have a physical examination, to understand the physical condition of the elderly, if the elderly have inflexible legs and feet, or there are some physical problems, we can also use the Maidster nursing bed to assist in the daily life of the elderly, the nursing bed is equipped with a wide and detachable guardrail to prevent the elderly from accidentally falling into bed, causing injury, the back function can assist the elderly to get up, and with the detachable dining table board can meet the daily needs of the elderly for eating, reading books and newspapers, etc. For the elderly who are difficult to take care of themselves, the function of lifting the leg can exercise the leg muscles well, promote blood circulation, and turn over the function, it is recommended to turn over once every 1 2 hours to prevent the breeding of bedsores, and at the same time, daily cleaning and hygiene are equally important for the elderly who are difficult to take care of themselves. To wash your hair, you can use the back lift to raise it slightly to help the elderly adjust their posture, and try to have more time to communicate with the elderly and accompany them more.

It is very difficult to serve an elderly person for a long time. Especially those who are incapacitated by the elderly. When taking care of them, it often causes misunderstandings among them.

Probably they were also unintentional, they had lost consciousness. So it's very, very difficult to care for them. Human life is high and wide, and we are always easy to lose ourselves and make wrong choices.

But no matter how much we make mistakes, it won't be too bad as long as we have the courage to take them and correct them. Buddhism has clouds and bitter seas, and the back is the shore. No matter how much we go wrong, as long as we are willing to turn back, there will always be a better way out.

People are not saints and sages, and making mistakes is an essential part of life. Life needs to make mistakes, because only when there are mistakes can we have self-confidence and self-awareness, so that we can better grasp and treat life well. Don't go away because of a momentary mistake and deny yourself, and don't go because of a momentary mistake and deny the life of others.

People live a lifetime, and they can't be changed because of a mistake. Don't be easily discouraged and compromised. Today is a holiday, all mistakes are an essential part of life, but also for that more wonderful tomorrow.

Life is always good and bad, half right and wrong, and intersecting. There is no need to be upset if you have done something wrong, and there is no need to panic if you have taken the wrong path. There will always be ups and downs in the long journey of life, and there will always be regrets about mistakes.

We should be glad because on the way forward, every mistake is another growth in life. And we can only find our own correct direction through continuous mistakes and explorations.
