In addition to understanding the reasons why the elderly want to go out, caregivers also need to pay attention to the elderly's daily routine. For example, if the elderly are usually confused in the morning and ask to go out, caregivers need to pay extra attention to the elderly's activities during this period.
In the past, there were patients who became confused in the evening and asked to go out to pick up their children from school. In this case, caregivers do not need to correct the elderly, but can try to put themselves in the elderly's perspective and give appropriate responses to reduce the elderly's desire to go out.
