Book was a help. Many of the suggested activities I was already aware of but it did add to the choices.

An excellent resource for caregivers of Alzheimer patients.Not quite as good for workers in the field.

This book is a thumb-nail reference for ideas to enrich the lives of those with Alzheimer’s or other senile dementing disorders. However, as a professional therapist, I find the ideas rather involved. I believe these ideas are more appropriate for primary caregivers and family. As someone who visits ALFs, I’d have to have a HUGE bag of tricks to accomplish most of these activities (and each tailored to the individuals’ pasts).

In reviewing this book, I discovered it is an excellent resource not only for professional care providers, but for family members as well. There are very detailed examples of specific activities to do on a daily basis, and could be easily adapted for varying levels of dementia.
