Case Study: Margaret is an 80-year-old woman living in an aged care facility. She has a severe case of dementia, and often mixes up her present with her past. This results in prolonged periods of time where she believes she is still in her 20s, newly married to her husband Henry. Margaret often requests to speak to or visit Henry, insisting the two of them have arranged to go to the pictures together. However, Henry passed away fifteen years earlier. These situations are often upsetting for Margaret's family members, causing them significant levels of stress. They sometimes find it hard to cope with the progression and severity of Margaret's condition. Discuss some methods of verbal and non-verbal communication you could use to support and engage with Margaret in a safe and respectful way when responding to her requests to see and speak to Henry.
