Was in Assisted Living for 1 wk and went on hunger strike, sent to a Geriatric Psych Ward for reaction to being placed in Assisted Living (wanting to die) and trying to control by not eating. Started eating as soon as she got there and it was over the weekend so nothing really got done and out by Tuesday am and back w/family. Placed on a 2nd anti-depressant which helps w/sleeping but not sure how far you can get w/someone that has had dementia for atleast 3+ yrs. Any ideas or experiences w/Geriatric Psychologist ?
