Hello.
This is the first time I have posted.
Please may I get some advice.
I struggle working with dementia as it's not the area I'm use to.
I am now a carer for a 85 year old lady who has dementia I do 12 hour shifts with this lady.
When I first became her carer we had a fantastic relationship and really got on well.
However I seem to have done some thing to upset her and now she's very aggressive towards me verbally and physically. I have no idea what I have done wrong how ever she thinks I am somebody else and hates me.
Is there anyway I can resolve this situation.
Thank you in advance.
