Summary

"Activity books are one type of nonpharmacological intervention recommended by experts for those caring for people with dementia and Alzheimer disease. This book informs caregivers about dementia and provides many activities for them to do with a memory-impaired older adult they are caring for. The book begins with an overview of dementia, tips for the caregiver, and a discussion of types of therapy. Each activity chapter follows a similar structure, beginning with an overview of how to introduce and implement the specific activities and sections devoted to engagement "At Home" and "In a Community Setting.""--, Provided by publisher
