Question

CHCAGE005 SECTION B Case Study 3 Richard is part of a team who support people with dementia. One of the most challenging aspects of Richard’s job is managing the problematic and disruptive behaviours of the people he is caring for. Richard realises that in most cases these behaviours are a way of expressing unmet needs and concerns. Unfortunately, it can be tricky to identify these needs, especially for those like Karin who have severe dementia. Karin is unable to use words to explain her thoughts and feelings. Richard tries to use a range of strategies to reassure her and minimise the impacts of the behaviours of concern. However, he has noticed that sometimes the effectiveness of a strategy will change and require the team to review the behaviour support plan to better meet the needs of the people receiving care. Question 14 Why is it important for Richard to contribute to team discussions on behaviour support planning and review? Question 15 How can Richard monitor the strategies to minimise disruptive and problematic behaviours noted in Karin’s behaviour support plan? Question 16 What are some things Richard and his team should consider when planning activities to enhance self-esteem and pleasure in a person with dementia’s life?
