Caregivers can better manage aggression in geriatric patients with cognitive deficits by involving them in care planning. This collaborative approach transforms challenging behaviors into opportunities for connection and improved patient care.

Area of Science:

  • Geriatric Medicine
  • Behavioral Science
  • Nursing Care

Context:

  • Geriatric residents with cognitive deficits frequently exhibit verbal and physical aggression.
  • Healthcare teams often struggle with consistent intervention and cooperation when managing aggressive behaviors in elderly patients.
  • Caregivers require specialized strategies to effectively manage challenging behaviors in aged care settings.

Purpose:

  • To provide caregivers with effective strategies for managing aggression in geriatric patients with cognitive impairments.
  • To enhance patient care by fostering a collaborative problem-solving approach involving direct care staff.
  • To improve the caregiver's perception of aggressive residents, promoting empathy and patient-centered care.

Summary:

  • This article introduces a consensual approach to patient care for individuals exhibiting aggression in geriatric settings.
