What does a Senior do with another Senior who is causing trouble in a Senior Bldg?

This neighbor has knocked over flower pots full of flowers; turned a recliner and breathing machine on high knowing it bangs and thumps the apt next to her; stands outside the neighbors door and listens; and actually put a shopping cart across the neighbors door so she couldn't get out?

What does a Senior do with another Senior who is causing trouble in a Senior Bldg?
you can write a report and send it to the superintendent of the complex. When these are received they are reviewed and then the people will get a violation and this can result in expulsion from the building. I know this is how it works in our building and several have received warnings and it seems to have worked. We are also encouraged to resolve disputes amongst ourselves. Hope this is some insight for your path to take. She may be over medicating herself and needs intervention.
Reply:This person is awesome!! they're just like me, they hate old people. yay!
Reply:The person is not being mean, she is demented...I know something has to be done, but .... really, this isn't her fauly, she has just lost it. Contact the building manager, he/she will take care of the problem.
Reply:If this is an assisted living community, she should ask for some assistance. This neighbor seems to be having issues of her own, and confronting the neighbor herself would probably make things turn ugly. I'm saddened to know that older doesn't mean wiser, and people always have problems dealing with eachother.
Reply:maybe shes lonely, invite her over for a card game or something. she might just need a friend.
Reply:Isn't there someone who sees to the tenants in the building? This problem needs to be addressed so that all tenants are treated equally. The cart across the door is fire hazard and must not be tolerated. I would call the super pronto.
Reply:there has to be a tennants committee (or something like it) I would raise it then.
Reply:Report it to the Body Corporate, if you are all in a complex, and own your units.



Don't know what you call the Body Corporate in your country.



But there are Organisations that deal with this type of harassment. Get in touch with them.



And spend some time with her, letting her know that not all people are mean.
Reply:Is there a state run organization for seniors, perhaps the department of social services. Perhaps she needs some sort of help or has a form of dementia. Maybe someone should go out and see her and see if there is something that can be done to bring peace to the building residents.
Reply:Ask building management to look into it. She could need help (literally, if her breathing machine is on high). It sounds as if she might have, at the very least, a touch of dementia. Building management should be able to contact her family and/or family doctor.
