Low Lee - Fay - Live And Laugh With Dementia The Essential Guide To Maximizing Quality Of Life - Paperback

Binding: Paperback
Description: Worldwide over 45 million people live with dementia. For every person with dementia their family and carers face the decision of how best to care for them. Live and Laugh with Dementia is all about how to make life with dementia as positive as possible to maximize quality of life for all concerned. Just as we need to exercise our body's muscles to keep them strong flexible and working well so too do we need to exercise our mental muscles (our brain) to strengthen and maintain our neural capabilities. By tailoring activities to suit the needs and abilities of dementia patients we can help them to: maintain their relationships with others; maintain their self - identity; slow the decline of mental function by providing physical and mental stimulation; stave off boredom; and experience happiness and pleasure.
