As our client or loved one's dementia progresses, it can become increasingly difficult to engage them or find non-drug interventions to use to calm them down when a behavior occurs. With over 300 ideas and examples, the newest book from the 168 Hour Caregiving Work Week Series - Activity and Behavior Interventions for Low Functioning Individuals offers tips and insights which can help you. This book is designed as a quick reference guide of ideas to engage the one you care for. Throw away any pre-conceived notions you and others may have on how something should be done. There is no right or wrong way when it comes to activities. There is only what works for you and your client.
