Helen Lambert is an Independent State Registered Occupational Therapist with more than 25 years of experience, and now provides personal training courses for the social care sector. Driven by the memory of her grandmother, Helen is passionate about using her personal and professional experience to improve the provision of person-centred care, and is committed to supporting all who live with dementia--both those who have been diagnosed, and the families and friends around them.
Physical and mental activities along with social interaction may help maintain your brain health and slow the progress of memory loss and dementia, including Alzheimer's disease. They can also provide a meaningful way to connect. This book is packed with fun and creative ideas, from nature walks, gardening, and exercise to arts, crafts, puzzles, and games. Each activity includes step-by-step instructions, the specific benefits, and ways to adapt the activity for different abilities. Designed for people with memory loss or dementia along with their family, friends, and caregivers, AARP's Memory Activity Book is a valuable resource for everyone touched by these conditions.
The Catch 22s lead this book to limited use My mom was diagnosed with a non-progressive form of dementia in 2000 and I've spent tons of time with her over the years although she lives near my sister, her primary caregiver. I have also volunteered during the arts and crafts activity at an assisted living facility for about a year. And here is what I think: among other things, possibly in order to achieve a certain number of pages, unnecessary fluff was added, for example, stuff about Sports Heroes, Modern Fashions and The story of the telephone. In addition, activities were included that make no sense for someone with memory problems, like biking or walking alone possibly with the help of an app, The problem is that getting lost is a real possibility as is trying to remember how to use an app.The entire section about games is a condescending-seeming joke. The author explains, for example, how to play cards and do a puzzle, among other things. Think about it (and I know this because of my mom), if you're familiar with something, either of these things, then nobody needs to explain that you, say, separate the edge pieces. If you have never played, say, cribbage and you're trying to learn it with short term memory problems, you'll just get frustrated when you can't remember the rules.In the swimming section, the author reminds the reader to wear goggles. Really?On the Simple exercises page, she suggests, Wear comfortable clothes and, if needed, appropriate footwear.Go shopping suggests you check to see what you already have before grocery shopping, and Paying suggests using credit or (PIN-number-remembering-required) debit cards instead of cash.Why plants annual plants when perennials will grow back year after year?Watch an old movie suggests renting or buying...wouldn't Netflix or Amazon Prime be easier?And in the part where she suggests labeling cupboards, why not instead replace the doors with clear glass?All this makes me wonder...where's the part where she suggests that the dementia-afflicted person, Use an umbrella if it's raining hard outside? I mean, are you kidding me?Firm grasp of the obvious, condescending stuff aside, there are some good suggestions in the book, like scrapbooking, pressing flowers and printing, but the book suffers from the author trying to do too much and explain too thoroughly things that simply make no sense. With some work, this could be made into a more logical, useful book for caregivers and assisted living facility activity coordinators but it makes no sense to me that a person with an appreciable memory loss issue could properly use this book without feeling offended.Not worth your money or time No new information. General Help. Would not recommend buyingExpected more Not enough of what I was hoping for. Lots of stuff that doesn't really apply.
