Making Memory Books for People with Dementia
Sarah has a passion to help those with dementia and their carers.
It's been proven that people with severe memory loss, dementia or Alzheimer's will function better if they are reminded of their lives and those of their loved ones.
We all have had a unique life of adventure and memory books reflect and record our journey.
A Florida State University researcher found memory books, which might include notes, photos and other keepsakes, can help reconnect dementia sufferers with their loved ones.
Using the memory book may help stimulate the sufferer to use their remaining mental faculties.
It is useful for care givers to be able to connect with an individual’s history and to see them as the whole person.
