The common behavior of most elderly patient or senior,is that they needed
much more attention than we thought,at all times,and as we know,when we
saw or recall our beloved grandma or grandpa,they needed much more
attention and they're most likely a sensitive in terms of feelings,and
this thing must to be aware of, as a caregiver.
and must always take it in to consideration and a lots of patience,
a huge patience, most of the percentage of the elderly or senior
patient,they usually forget something,or doesn't remember what was
yesterday,and its not by intention,this is due to some diseases or ailment,
sometimes even in day by day conversation will be the same as yesterday.
The reason is just they wanted someone that will be there for them
to listen,to listen what was their past and comparing it in the present,
its so natural for most of the elderly patient.
as a care provider,you must to take it into the list for as the one
of the priority for the patient enjoyment,as this is what they wanted the most,
that someone will listen and have a good bonding by means of conversation,

a person within as genuine,like if the caregiver can be trusted alone with
the elderly person or in any ages,and on how the caregiver behave in terms
of personality in day to day routine as a caregiver.
