Poetry is an engaging and inclusive activity for older people that
can help develop memory, imagination and identity. This book
provides guidance on setting up and monitoring poetry projects for
people living with dementia in group care homes and individual
families. It explains the benefits of creative expression for
people with dementia, and shows how to facilitate poetry reading
and writing groups in different environments. Specific techniques
for introducing poetry to older people can be employed by family
members or professional care staff to enhance the wellbeing of the
individual living with dementia. The ethical issues of running
poetry projects in dementia care are explored along with examples
of poetry produced by individuals and groups, interviews with care
workers, and case studies.
