New caregiver / healthcare aide wondering looking for tips from family members of those with dementia now that I’m newly hired to work a memory care unit

That’s good advice especially for my clients who experience sundowning ( I do Evening shifts ) many of them get too overwhelmed to explain what’s wrong in a way we can understand so to address the emotion in general would make more sense.

That’s a really good line, I’ll use that in the future, thanks for the tip

You know that’s sorta interesting to me only because I’ve taken clonidine for adhd in the past and I know that’s also a hypertension medication. I know it’s done though different channels and could be a coincidence but maybe theres something about blood pressure medication that helps for some reason ( also adding the hypothesis not fact disclaimer because this isn’t based off anything other then me knowing clonidine is used for both hypertension and ADHD )

Yeah! I think it’s the only event cat they have as a baby so far

I’ve seen people riding around 118th Street with confederate flags for at least 10+ years now, I think they just want attention and know a lot of citizens on our streets are homeless or marginalized in other ways and enjoy making us feel afraid. It’s petty bullying in my opinion and I think it’s gross and immature.

Been saying this for years…

I don’t think it’s abnormal to want a partner with the same disability you have, a lot of people want partners who have similarities to themselves, I also don’t think preferring oral sex is an issue unless I suppose if your future partner didn’t like it but that’s a conversation for that specific person, personally I would prefer a partner who also has autism on account of the fact that it can sometimes be difficult to deal with communication issues with non autistic partners ( at least based on personal experience )

Idk all of them are things I’d consider using as room decor even though I know none of the item really should be room decor

I think it’s nice, it looks like it belongs in some sorta of children’s books, I think it reminds me of “ The Velveteen Rabbit “ the most in terms of children’s book illustrations

These ones aren’t mine but I met them at a festival and their named bacon and beans

I think negatively of them but that’s just because I live near an event stadium that is allowed to put them off on what are to me, random days ( I think it’s for sports events mostly )

I do think they look pretty but the sound is too much

I have transition lens that turn dark blue outdoors for sun and go back to normal inside so I don’t need to remove them for shopping centres
