A individual who has Alzheimer's may respond with disappointment, frustration and even violence when once-automatic tasks become challenging or hard. To restrict difficulties and convenience frustration:

Establish a schedule to make each day more foreseeable and less complicated.
Schedule more time to finish even easy tasks so that you don't need to rush your family member.
Allow your family member to do as much as possible with the least quantity of assistance.
The less the choices, the simpler it is to decide. For example, offer two clothing to select between — not a closet full of clothes.

Good advice, thanks
