As Alzheimer's progresses to later stages of the disease it is common for seniors to experience agitation. Your loved one may express this agitation with physical or verbal outbursts, restlessness, yelling, pacing, shredding paper or tissue or expressing general emotional distress. Learning to prevent agitation before it occurs will help you and your loved one feel better. Create a Calm Environment Too much noise, a cluttered space or even the distraction of a television being on, can make your loved one's senses feel overwhelmed. Make sure that their home or room is clean and free of clutter, turn off background noise and keep technology to a minimum to help your loved one feel more peaceful in their environment.
