Behavioral Crisis

Aggression and agitation are the most common behaviors present at crisis. Delusions, wandering, and hallucinations are also key behaviors contributing to crisis. Behavioral crisis can happen suddenly in people with dementia. Seniors residing in their own homes are at higher risk for harm during crisis. Many times they end up in a psychiatric inpatient setting, specialist-care unit, long-term care setting, or referred to psychiatric community services.

Geriatric Care Management Assisted Living Board and Care Crisis Management Memory Care Medicare Help

Assistance from a Geriatric Care Manager in Rowlett, Rockwall or North Texas with ongoing monitoring can prevent costly crises and unnecessary hospitalization. Geriatric Care Managers can be especially helpful when family members live far apart or when there are family dynamics and a facilitator is needed. Sometimes seniors are fearful of losing their independence and they don’t feel comfortable sharing their fears and concerns with their loved one. A Geriatric Care Manager will act as a liaison with families to help maintain good communication with families and other support systems to build or maintain important links between seniors and their families and, with permission, to alert families to problems areas that they may be able to assist with.

Geriatric Care Managers can reduce inappropriate institutional care and overuse of services as well as reduce miscommunications, time, stress, and cost to clients.
