2. Restlessness
Others who suffer from the syndrome might become restless throughout the night. This becomes an issue as they’ll likely want to move around the house while everyone is asleep. For someone who is sound of mind and not dealing with any mental conditions, this would be totally fine.
That said, for someone who is in the late stages of Alzheimer’s, letting them wander around in the dead of night unsupervised could have some dire consequences. If you find them wanting to walk around, it’s important that you keep a close eye and remove any obstacles that they might bump into during their pacing.
Colliding with an object could injure them and/or put them into a state of panic. A great place to have them pace around is in the backyard. Ensure that there are no weeds that they might trip over and keep watch so that they don’t make their way into the yard of your neighbor.
