Care recipient (cr) gets agitated and resentful when caregiver (cg) makes repeated requests to eat dress shower and so on

Try: Try to understand that the cr cr’s agitation and resentment may be caused by not being able to remember to do these tasks anymore try to restore choice and control to the cr this may help reduce the agitation make a list of all of the necessary daily tasks that the cr needs to accomplish create a daily activity sheet and assign a time frame for each task keep the sheet posted on the wall or the refrigerator when it is time to start on the task simply say dad you asked me to remind you at 8 30 that it is time to take your shower a reminder will be more well received that an instruction because it restores the choice and control to the cr
