Question 6

Caregiver roles by close friends/family are often due to love for the individual. Love drives them to care, while other options like "right thing" is vague, "know well" is less core, and "more time" isn't always true.

Therapeutic communication involves being non - judgmental and open to caregivers' concerns. Referring to a psychiatrist is referral, arguing and interrupting are non - therapeutic.

Dementia affects the individual and their close friends/family as they are involved in care and daily life. Healthcare providers, office staff, or insurance companies are less directly and personally affected in the same way.

Answer:

A. Out of love for the individual
