A new Human Rights Watch report found that instead of providing support to older people with dementia, many aged care facilities in Australia are using drugs to control their behavior, a practice known as chemical restraint.
In addition to the physical, social, and emotional harm for older people restrained with these drugs, their use on those with dementia is also associated with an increased risk of death.
In cases where older people stopped receiving the medications after relatives intervened, some regained their previous vitality.
When older people are silenced by drugs rather than given person-centered support, it risks their health and insults their humanity. We all have the same right to be treated with dignity, which doesn’t change with age or dementia.
