I gave this to you as an example, I want 
you to give it a direction of thought.

3
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:16,800
You need to develop an attitude that you 
need to give to give a practical response 
than an emotional one.

00:00:16,900 --> 00:00:24,400
The first guideline is to Change your attitude 
of emotional reactor to intellectual observer.

Every cellphone provides a microphone & a

13
00:01:20,700 --> 00:01:28,000
Be a good listner. One who listens says

14
00:01:28,100 --> 00:01:33,200
Well heard conversations can give better 
responses

15
00:01:33,300 --> 00:01:38,100
Hear them out not just to listen but to understand 
them.

16
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:43,100
Find out the intention behind thier words, 
Lisen to them

17
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:48,800
Increase your level of tollerance marginally.

18
00:01:48,900 --> 00:01:54,400
I agree that everyone has a busy schedule, 
rush of the morning hour

19
00:01:54,500 --> 00:02:02,500
If a senior citizen asks you if they could 
take a bath? they have asked you the same 
question thrice.

20
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:14,200
Ask them if they would like you to show them 
where the washroom is, there might be a chance 
that they forgot where the washroom is.

21
00:02:14,300 --> 00:03:24,300
If you react at them, they might pee in the 
wrong place or walk out naked in the hall

22
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:30,100
There is a lot of irritation. You might have 
just heard Comma, drowsiness, Lethargy

23
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:34,900
But agitation aggression is in more value.

24
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:39,800
Always recollect their past habits, occupation, 
and hobbies. Let me tell you

25
00:03:39,900 --> 00:03:45,400
I got a video from Raigadh, in which,

26
00:03:45,500 --> 00:03:56,500
The person used to wake up in between of 
the night and walk around the house, even 
the sleeping pills didn't work

27
00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:00,700
After asking what their hobbies were,

28
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:10,700
He used to play tennis, so the day he was 
given the racket & the ball he was at peace

29
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:20,500
Due to past habits he used to look for the 
equipments in the sleep.

30
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:23,800
It used to be dark so it was hard for him 
to look for. He got better with his sleep.

31
00:04:23,900 --> 00:04:32,300
A lot of times, day, night, evening habits 
like these are called Transitory objects.

32
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:40,500
You know them well before they had Dementia 
now,

33
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:44,800
you have the opportunity to teach them what 
they have lost.

34
00:04:44,900 --> 00:04:52,900
Cultivating a habit of engaging them in talks, 
activities and interactions.

35
00:04:53,000 --> 00:05:08,000
Help them by watching movies of their lkings, 
B/W movies, games, board games , ludo etc

36
00:05:08,100 --> 00:05:14,000
Paricipate in the activites even if they 
bore you.

37
00:05:14,100 --> 00:05:16,600
Keep some transitory objects of attachment 
with you.

38
00:05:16,700 --> 00:05:25,400
Be it the old Murphy radio, a badminton racket 
or even thier favourite old shawl

39
00:05:25,500 --> 00:05:33,100
Keep these things around them this might 
reduce their irritation.

40
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:45,500
if he has a habit of chewing tobacco just 
do this in front of them, they will laugh.

41
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:53,000
Such things are transitory objects which 
make them happy.
