Intro
Sometimes people living with dementia can get agitated, unsettled and upset. The solution isn’t always activity, as that might agitate them more – sometimes the solution is simply taking a little time out.
It might be hard to pinpoint what is making them agitated if they can’t rationalise their thoughts and feelings into words. So it’s always best to first consider the obvious triggers, like needing the toilet or feeling hungry, thirsty or unwell – or side effects from medication. If it’s none of these things then simply going for a nice relaxing walk may help.
