Dementia Care: Responding to Repetition With Care
Repetitive questions are a natural part of dementia progression. Responding with patience helps seniors feel secure and understood.
Supportive techniques include:
Answering gently and consistently
Avoiding frustration or correction
Validating emotions behind the question
Redirecting calmly when appropriate
