Reminiscence is a vital way to stimulate communication and promote
confidence and self-worth in people with dementia. This practical
guide is designed to give those who care for people with dementia a
clear sense of how reminiscence can be used to greatly improve
their quality of life. The book explores how reminiscence can
contribute to person-centred dementia care and contains detailed
descriptions of activities that can be used in a group setting, for
one-to-one reminiscence at home or in a variety of care settings.
Based on ideas developed and tested internationally over a period
of ten years, the book offers imaginative approaches to
reminiscence and a wealth of resources for use in a wide range of
situations. The book includes advice on organising a reminiscence
project and provides a useful planning tool for group sessions.
Remembering Yesterday, Caring Today highlights the value of
reminiscence for those with dementia and is an essential guide to
good practice for family and professional carers.

?Sheds new light on complex human issues and the message is loud
and clear: reminiscence and reminiscence theatre can make a
profound improvement in real people's real lives.? ? from the
Foreword by Glenda Jackson MP ?The vast scope of the work recounted
in this book as well as the detailed guidance it provides will
become an invaluable resource for anyone who wishes to mine the
riches of reminiscence work and to transform the spoken word into
tangible artistic forms.? ? Faith Gibson, Emeritus Professor of
Social Work, University of Ulster Reminiscence Theatre is about
seeing dramatic potential in real life stories. It takes verbatim
memories as the basis for theatre scripts, using the experiences of
older people as a source of therapeutic creativity. This book is a
comprehensive guide to the nature, practice and therapeutic effects
of reminiscence theatre. Drawing on examples from a range of
real-life case studies, Pam Schweitzer provides practical advice on
the process of taking an oral history, creating from it a written
script and developing that into a dramatic production, on whatever
scale. The book outlines five components of key significance that
the form affords: artistic development through creativity; cultural
development, by creating reminiscence theatre in multi-cultural
contexts such as dual-language productions; educational development
through the intergenerational sharing of memories; psycho-social
development for older people by reliving and reshaping past
experiences; and health care, by using reminiscence theatre as
therapy for older people with dementia, for instance. This will be
of great interest to social work professionals and carers of older
people, arts therapypractitioners and students in these fields
