The story of a psychiatrist and dementia patients

In an increasingly serious society, how to treat Alzheimer's disease is how to treat you who are about to get old.

Children will not think of being old, and young people have no time to think about the old.

And around them, countless longevity people must face the realistic problem: one of the 65 years old has one fourth of sixteen of the elderly, one -fifth of the age of 75 will get dementia, and if you are lucky enough to live to 85 to 85 When you are, you will face half of the perhaps dementia.

In recent years, with the popularity of film and television dramas such as "The Both", "Genius Basic Law", and "Father trapped in time", the status quo and care of elderly dementia patients have become more and more concerned. In an increasingly serious society, how to treat Alzheimer's disease is how to treat you who are about to get old.

"People with dementia will one day forget everyone and things in their lives, but he/she will re -understand the person who is with him in a new way." Chen Binhua, Director of the Elderly Spirit of Hangzhou City, said. Because of his work, he had been in hand with Alzheimer's patients for more than 20 years. Perhaps, after listening to his story with his "old babies", you will feel that the disease is not so desperate.

10 yuan move

Chen Binhua's mobile phone has a short video of "sneak shot". When he is too tired or uncomfortable, he will go out and see, and then he will soon be able to "be resurrected with blood". What secret did this magical video hide?

"What is the banknote?"

"Don't be too little."

"What do you do for my banknote?"

"Buy watermelon to eat."

The reporter of "Qianjiang Evening News" opened the video and saw that in just a few seconds, there were only four conversations. In the blurry picture, I saw a patient wearing a sick clothes and stuffed things in the white coat pocket of a doctor to the doctor. Essence At first glance, I don't know what it is.

It turned out that in the early days that day, Chen Binhua saw Grandma Xu (a pseudonym) sitting beside the bed to ignore money. Thinking of most of the dementia patients care about himself, especially money, he wanted to try to understand the old lady's condition. Whether there is any "stolen thought", by the way, take a video for students to use it for class in the future. Unexpectedly, when he approached his mobile phone, Grandma Xu rolled up a few of them to stuff it into his pocket. For the first time, he subconsciously avoided it. Grandma Xu immediately stuffed it again. This time, he did not hide.

Afterwards, Chen Binhua carefully looked at Grandma Xu's money. It was a bunch of banknotes of 1 yuan, 2 yuan, 5 yuan, 10 yuan, etc., which was tens of yuan together, and the roll of money that was stuffed to him There is actually the only maximum amount of 10 yuan -Grandma Xu delivered the greatest trust to him.

"The old lady is in her 70s and always loves to hide money when she is at home. If she can't find it, it must be said that the children are stolen. The trouble caused, but when asked how he was close to the "old baby" that was difficult for even his children, he showed the iconic smile.

Operation of "Play Essence" upper body

Alzheimer's elderly who sent to hospitalizations often reached a more serious condition. Forgetting does not affect their stay at home. Suspicious is the main reason why many families cannot take care of them. They suspect that their children have stolen their salary cards. Some of the suspicion of their wife's derailment, and there are also doubtful nanny poisoning and alarm ... the situation is diverse.

Chen Binhua admits that these elderly people are both sensitive and "work", and coupled with the strange environment of the hospital, it is really difficult to approach them at first. However, if you can try to understand and re -understand them, it will not be difficult to become a person they feel close.

As the saying goes, "Do not stretch your hands and do not hit a laughing face." This is the first step of Chen Binhua's approaching the "old babies". He smiled and greeted them, while he asked the warmth, patted his shoulders, touched his stomach, etc. The old man will reflect this smiley face, and first believes that this is not a stranger. Grandpa Sun (pseudonym) in his 80s always said that his daughter took his salary away, and the hospitalization was particularly uneasy. Every time Chen Binhua watched the room, he smiled and told him: "Your salary has a bank, and the deposit list is here." In order to let the old man really believe, he also printed a similar deposit list for him. He even found a friend who worked in a bank to have a thick knife to practice the simulation coins that practice money, so that the old man had a particular sense of security.

Grandma Liu (pseudonym), 78 -year -old, was depressed with dementia. He always worried that his children were arguing about going home. Every time Chen Binhua went to check the room, he would take out his mobile phone to make a model and call himself. After the words, the old lady told the old lady that "they told me on the phone very well", so the old lady can calm down for a long time.

Sometimes walking in the ward and encountering some elderly people eating, Chen Binhua will deliberately go closer to "ask": "Such a delicious thing, divide me a little." And the old man would look at him proudly, and then like The kindergarten children also shared with him, even if he was a candy and half biscuits, he would pick up his pockets like a baby, and then the old man would laugh very happily.

"Old babies" special response

Some young doctors who just joined the subject didn't understand Chen Binhua's "routine". After checking the room, they couldn't hold a smile and asked, "Director, do you say what you play on your body?"

"The cognition of Alzheimer's patients is actually similar to children. Why is there a saying of" old child "? Trim themselves as children. Usually, you can treat them. These goodwill lie can make them happy, I think the doctor is a person who can be close, and he can better cooperate with the treatment. "Chen Binhua answered his focus on his metropolis.

Chen Binhua said that he was actually happy to see a question like a young doctor. The elderly psychiatry is more special. When admitting education, you will specialize in how to communicate with the patients and his family, but they are relatively superficial, and they have to be taught by the words of high -aged doctors. Essence

In fact, the same is true of family members and dementia. Don't try to make sense to them, follow their cognition, do not blame, argue, these "old babies" will naturally feel hello, and they will also give them special response.

For example, since then, every time he sees Chen Binhua, he will immediately smile and say hello to "You are here!" Then he trembled and welcomed enthusiastically; Grandma Liu was more interesting. "Beautiful", and she would say "this person is so ugly."
