Personal conflicts, even violence, are not uncommon in long-term care

Associated media - Linked media Those most likely to be involved are younger and able to walk, “able to move and put themselves in harm’s way,” Dr. Pillemer said. Most had at least moderate cognitive impairment. The studies also found that incidents occurred more often in specialized dementia units. “Memory care has positive elements, but it also puts residents at greater risk of assault,” Dr. Pillemer said. “More people with brain diseases, uninhibited people, gather in a smaller space.” Because so many, both perpetrators and victims, suffer from dementia, “sometimes we can’t say what started things,” said Leanne Rorick, director…
