A collection of easy-to-follow activities, organized by seasons of
the year, to help family members and caregivers engage with
memory-challenged adults. Dementia and related disorders impact the
lives of those affected in countless ways, making it difficult to
remain independent at work, at home, and in the wider world. But
recent studies have shown that structured activities can make a
significant, positive difference by stimulating mental engagement
while improving interactions between caregivers and
memory-challenged adults. Fun and easy to use, this large-format,
full-color picture book is divided into themes representing the
four seasons. Each section describes several multisensory
experiences-such as walking on the beach, making ice cream, or
planting flowers-along with related topics for discussion and
activities to elicit memories and encourage new positive
associations. The topics and activities incorporate all five senses
to facilitate connections and conversations. The book adopts a
compassionate, person-centered approach and is designed so that two
people can easily look together while sitting side by side. This
latest edition, which has been thoroughly revised, * takes a
multicultural approach * includes all-new images, as well as 14
completely new highlighted activities * integrates modern wellness
concepts * features a new introduction and an updated resource
section * offers guidance about activity planning and optimizing
interactions between care partners and the individual with dementia
Helping you and your loved one make cherished new memories, Through
the Seasons is an indispensable solution to the question of what to
do together to maintain well-being and connection.
