$150.00
This practical documentary offers caregivers methods for communicating with disoriented very old people (probable Alzheimer's or related disorders). The video addresses how to deal with elderly people who begin making unfair or seemingly irrational accusations against those who care for them. By way of example, the video shows caregivers what to do when an 85 year old woman wanders from home, doesn't recognize her family, and becomes abusive.

In clear "before" and "after" scenes, Muriel and Marge offer families and staff helping techniques that will reduce burnout for caregivers and stress for the very old person.

Bring out the best in each person with dementia with these versatile, easy-to-implement Best Friends™ activities. A best friend knows your habits, what you like to do, and what makes you feel good.

With the ideas and suggestions found in this book, any member of a program’s care staff can turn the simplest interaction with a person with dementia into an activity that helps satisfy essential physical, emotional, and spiritual needs. In these inspiring pages, you will find
• activities for unprogrammed time, including evenings and weekends

• opportunities for intergenerational exchanges
• interactive group activities
• art projects for exercising creativity

Suggestions for integrating humor, music, and reminiscence into these 147 activities are included, as well as adaptations for individuals in the early and late stages of Alzheimer’s disease, preventive measures to avoid unwanted surprises, and conversation tips.

This readable book includes a history of music therapy, the need for research in the field, discussions of music in groups and music with individuals, and a useful resource list of music materials.

haw-story.gif Book: Story Writing in a Nursing Home
$39.00
A Patchwork of Memories
Edited by Martha Tyler John, PhD

Based on the belief that older people have good stories to tell, Story Writing in a Nursing Home was developed as part of a volunteer teaching service to a nursing home. Graduate students who were learning to teach this special population conducted story writing activities with older adults and found that even the frail elderly who are confined to nursing centers provided a unique perspective about events that emphasize the lasting verities in life. The idea of a patchwork was derived from one of the lessons taught and was suggested by one of the older participants who said, “We’re sort of like a patchwork quilt.”
