Reduce the speed of speech and wait patiently for the patient to answer. When the patient does not understand, the caregiver should remind the patient more to reduce the patient's frustration; cooperate with the physical pictures and photos, and use the limb language to comfort, encourage and praise the patient in a timely manner; when the patient makes a mistake, do not argue with it, and patiently persuade them to persuade them Essence Although there is no treatment for the progress of Alzheimer's disease, as long as the patient actively cooperates with the doctor's treatment, and supplemented by various non -drug cognitive training, most patients' disease progress will be delayed.
