Author: James R. Dowling
Keeping Busy: A Handbook of Activities for Persons with Dementia is a practical, compassionate book that provides hands-on information for truly therapeutic activities for persons with dementia.
Though little can be done to alter the course of dementia, much can be done to maximize the quality of life of people with this condition. This book offers suggestions for activities involving music, gardening, pets, humor, and social events. Each activity includes step-by-step instructions as well as adaptations for large and small groups.
What we like best about this product: Keeping Busy is well-suited for either one-on-one use at home or a daycare facility. Topics are timely, appropriate and interesting: "What is ..., What else might we use for, ..." Chase & Sanborn, Aunt Jemima, etc. (What images come to mind and can you not smell the coffee?)
