Barbara Smith OTR/L's Review,
By
This review is from: Adorable Photographs of Our Baby: Meaningful, Mind Stimulating Activities and More for the Memory Challenged, Their Loved Ones, and Involved Professionals (Paperback)
As an occupational therapist I appreciate how Susan Berg provides detailed directions on how to use these photographs to stimulate patients who are in different stages of memory loss. The simple and attractive photographs have universal appeal and the large, bold captions make the book easy to use by individuals in the early stages of dementia. Each photograph is accompanied by an idea page that suggests ways to use the photograph to stimulate the patient. This may be as simple as saying "The baby in the picture is being hugged" and then giving each resident a hug or the photograph may be used to initiate a discussion of how hugs make one feel.
This book provides a useful tool for professionals who work in the activities field. Family members or friends of memory impaired individuals may feel more comfortable interacting with a loved one when using this guide book filled with fun activities. Thank-you, Susan!

Jeanne's feedback,
This review is from: Adorable Photographs of Our Baby: Meaningful, Mind Stimulating Activities and More for the Memory Challenged, Their Loved Ones, and Involved Professionals (Paperback)
I have read this book and find it to be very informative and easy to use. There are so many useful ideas and suggestions on how to communicate with a patient with dementia. The games are easy to do with one-on-one or with a group. The pictures are large and colorful and should bring smiles to many people. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is a caregiver, nursing homes, and I have even given a copy to our local library. They were very pleased to receive it. This book should get a lot of use. Thank you for finding a way to connect with our memory impaired relatives.
