Positive relationships begin with people enjoying one another. This
fresh look at reminiscence uses fun-filled, lively activities to
help people laugh with, as well as learn from, each other. The
engaging program will foster understanding and build a sense of
community through meaningful interaction. Nine in-depth group
exercises and more than 30 informal mini-exercises cover broad
topics such as individuals' backgrounds, personal preferences, and
social history. Games, discussion, storytelling, and other
interactive methods are used to reveal participants' unique
characteristics, experiences, and interests. Substantial benefits
will result, including expanded self-awareness and self-esteem;
strengthened relationships among participants, families, and
caregivers; disclosure of useful information for personalizing
care; and enhanced brain functioning. Appropriate for people of all
ages, but aimed particularly at older adults, these activities can
be used in long-term care settings, assisted living facilities,
adult day centers, and senior centers. The exercises can also be
adapted for one-on-one use in home or community settings and used
with intergenerational groups. Each main exercise is completely
scripted and easy-to-implement with minimal preparation. The manual
also includes adaptations for people with dementia, additional
resource lists, and a CD-ROM with printable handouts. Every person
is unique - use these activities to discover, celebrate, and
benefit from the experience and individuality of older adults.
