There are lots of situations that you might see as a caregiver that could point you in the direction of wondering just what might be going on with your senior\u2019s brain. Trying some of these ideas can help you to narrow down what\u2019s happening.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Ask Around to Other People Who Spend Time with Her<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Other people who spend time with your senior may have noticed some of the same things you have. You don\u2019t have to go into details with anyone or start a big conversation, but asking if they\u2019ve noticed anything with your senior\u2019s memory might be helpful. This can give you any additional information that her doctor might find useful.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Have a Conversation with Your Senior<\/em> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s also important that you do sit down and talk to your aging family member about whatever has you concerned. The things you\u2019ve noticed may also be situations that have your senior on edge as well. Just because she\u2019s not mentioning them to you, that doesn\u2019t mean she isn\u2019t aware and isn\u2019t concerned. Having an open and loving conversation about whatever is happening can clear the air and help you to know where to go next.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Talk to Your Senior\u2019s Doctor<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>When your senior is ready, it\u2019s time to talk to her doctor. There are some tests that your senior\u2019s doctor can run that can help to see what\u2019s going on with her cognitive function. There are plenty of reasons for memory loss besides the really scary ones that your elderly family member might not want to talk about. Getting a medical opinion at this point can help immensely.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Put Together a Set of Plans<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>At this point, you should be able to start putting some plans in place. Your elderly family member might have recommendations from her doctor and there may be things you can do, too. One solution that could be helpful is to hire <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><em><strong>elderly care providers<\/strong><\/em>.<\/span> They can take over tasks that have become difficult for your senior, giving her a chance to conserve some energy. She may find that as she feels less overwhelmed she also experiences less trouble with memory.<\/p>\n<p>Whether your elderly family member is dealing with true cognitive issues or simply is feeling exhausted, there are solutions you can try out together. Sometimes just knowing she isn\u2019t alone is really all she needs.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>If you or an aging loved-one are considering hiring <\/strong><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.attentivecareinc.com\/contact-us\/\">Homecare in Mount Laurel, NJ<\/a><\/span><\/strong><strong>, please contact the caring staff at Attentive Care Inc. 1-800-493-5660<\/strong><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Homecare in Mount Laurel NJ: Memory issues are nothing to ignore.
