Impendulo emfushane
Imisebenzi yezinzwa isebenzisa ukuthinta, iphunga, ukunambitha, umsindo nokubona: ukuhlikihla izandla kancane, ibhasikidi lezindwangu ezithambile, amakhambi amasha okuhogela, imisindo yemvelo, noma ukubuka izinyoni efasiteleni. Ifanele zonke izigaba futhi ibaluleke kakhulu kamuva. Qalani nihlole ingozi yokuvaleka kwendlela yokuphefumula, ama-allergy, izinkinga zesikhumba nokuzwela amaphunga, nikeze into eyodwa ngesikhathi, futhi niyeke uma umuntu ebonakala engakhululekile.
- Imisebenzi yezinzwa ayidingi mpendulo ezifanele, okuyenza isebenze kuzo zonke izigaba, kuhlanganise nasembhedeni noma esihlalweni.
- Nikezani inzwa eyodwa ngesikhathi egumbini elithulile, futhi nibuze noma nimemezele ngaphambi kokuthinta.
- Gwemani izinto ezincane nanoma yini ebukeka noma enephunga elifana nokudla kodwa ingeyona, ngoba abantu bangase bafake izinto emilonyeni.
- Hlolani ama-allergy, izinkinga zesikhumba nezokuphefumula ngaphambi kokusebenzisa ukhilimu, amaphunga noma ukudla.
- Asikho isiqinisekiso esinamandla sokuthi i-aromatherapy isiza izimpawu ze-dementia; sebenzisani amaphunga kuphela ukuze nijabule ngokulula, uma kunjalo.
Kuleli khasi (izingxenye ezingu-6)
Imisebenzi yezinzwa isebenzisa izinzwa ezinhlanu: ukuthinta, iphunga, ukunambitha, umsindo nokubona. Ayidingi ukukhumbula, ayidingi izinyathelo futhi ayidingi mpendulo ezifanele, ngakho ingasebenza kunoma yisiphi isigaba. Ibaluleke kakhulu kamuva. I-Alzheimer’s Association ithi esigabeni sokugcina umhlaba uzwakala kakhulu ngezinzwa, nokuthi ningabonisa ukunakekela ngokuthinta, umsindo, ukubona, ukunambitha nephunga. Ukuhlola okumbalwa kokuphepha kwenza le misebenzi iphumuzise wonke umuntu.
Yini imisebenzi yezinzwa ye-dementia?
Imisebenzi yezinzwa yilokho okulula okuhlangenwayo okugxile enzweni eyodwa ngesikhathi, njengokuthinta indwangu, ukuhogela amakhambi noma ukulalela imvula. I-NHS ithi imisebenzi yesigaba sangemuva ivame ukudinga ukugxila ezinzweni, futhi ikhuluma ngomculo, izinto zokuthinta nokubamba, nokuhlikihla izandla. I-Alzheimer’s Foundation of America ithi abantu abasesigabeni sokugcina bangase babe nesidingo esiqinile sokubamba okuthile eduze ukuze baduduzeke.

- Khiphani into eyodwa ngesikhathi. Yinikezeni, niyichaze, bese nivumela umuntu ukuthi ayihlole.
- Bekani ibhokisi eceleni ngemva kwalokho ukuze lihlale likhethekile futhi izinto zihlolwe kabusha ngaphambi kwesikhathi esilandelayo.
Ukuphepha kuza kuqala
Imisebenzi yezinzwa ithambile, kodwa izingozi ezimbalwa ziyabalulekile. Abanye abantu abaphila ne-dementia bathatha izinto ezingezona ukudla njengokudla, futhi ukugwinya kungaba nzima ngokuhamba kwesikhathi; i-NIA ixwayisa ukuthi izinkinga zokugwinya esigabeni sokugcina ziphakamisa ingozi yokuvaleka kwendlela yokuphefumula (choking).
| Ingozi | Yini okufanele ukwenze |
|---|---|
| Ukuvaleka kwendlela yokuphefumula (choking) | Sebenzisani kuphela izinto ezinkulu kakhulu ukuba zingagwinywa. Akukho zinkinobho, ubuhlalu, izinhlamvu zemali, ama-marble noma amathoyizi amancane akhululekile ebhokisini. Nikezani ukudla kuphela ngendlela ethi ithimba lokunakekela iyaphephile. |
| Izinto ezibukeka njengokudla | I-NIA iluleka ukukhiya ukhilimu, amasepha, ushampu namaphafyumu, angabukeka noma abe nephunga elifana nokudla, futhi nisuse izithelo zokwenziwa. Beka imikhiqizo yezinzwa eceleni ngemva kokuyisebenzisa. |
| Ama-allergy | Hlolani ukuthi akukho ama-allergy kumantongomane, i-latex, uboya, izitshalo noma amaphunga ngaphambi kokuqala. |

Imibuzo evamile
Yimiphi imisebenzi yezinzwa emihle yomuntu one-dementia?
