Quizplus · Accepted Answer

It is important to let the person speak without interrupting or rushing them. This can help them feel heard and respected, and also give them the opportunity to communicate to the best of their ability. Asking simple questions may also be helpful, but not interrupting or rushing the person should be the priority. Offering words and ideas to help the person communicate or telling them that you understand may not be effective if the person is struggling to express themselves due to their Alzheimer's disease.
