A Different Visit: Activities for Caregivers and their Loved Ones with Memory Impairments, Paperback Edition

If you have a loved one with memory impairment, this manual is a wonderful resource. A Different Visit gives you ideas that will allow you to recapture the enjoyment of visiting with your loved one. Inside are activities designed to stimulate conversation and interaction and provide support to make each visit more enjoyable than the last. This manual was created to help people have a different visit with relatives who have memory problems, such as those related to dementia. We hope that here you can find many activities that are right for you and your family members regardless of where they are in the course of dementia. We understand that every person with dementia is different. What works for one person may not work for another, and what works one day may not work another day. This manual is written specifically to you - all those who love family members dearly, but need some inspiration for how to better engage and interact with them. The manual is entertaining as well as informative. The 2012 edition is a paperback version of the original book published in 2005 by Menorah Park Center for Senior Living.
