4. Poor Judgment
The grandparent or elderly parent is usually seen as a never-ending supply of wisdom. They’re the ones who’ve taught us much of what we know; helped us with our homework; and helped us through the most difficult stages of our lives.
However, we may notice these beacons of wisdom making some flat-out strange decisions. What’s more; the decisions would be glaringly bad ones but still be held on to by an Alzheimer’s patient.
These choices could be major or minor, but either could pose some serious danger to the patient themselves. For example, they may go out in the rain without an umbrella and walk a long way before realizing how wet they are.
If the person in front of you is exhibiting such symptoms, it’s definitely time to get professional help. Even if they’re safe enough at home, they should be kept secure.
