Overview:
Providers may find themselves overwhelmed with responding to challenging behaviors from older adults. Whether as a result of neurocognitive disorders, medication side effects, or personality traits, challenging behaviors are stressful for staff to manage and appropriately respond to. Learn about how challenging behaviors may present in older adults, possible origins and key areas to assess, and best practices for responding in person-centered and effective ways. Provider self-management will be discussed as a key factor in appropriately responding to these types of challenging behaviors.
Course Objectives:
By the end of the session, the participant will be able to:
- Describe the dynamics of anxiety and anger in older adults.
- Examine various assessment methods for gathering data.
- Identify evidenced-based interventions for anger and anxiety in adults.
