My mom is 86, nearly blind and has early stages of dementia. Do you have resources for low vison and blind elders? Thanks

Hi Bonnie, if your mom is in the early stages she may enjoy being read to, short stories, poems. She may also enjoy doing Proverbs, Things that Go Together, Yes or No, and True or False quizzes and Trivia. Don’t forget to offer music she heard when she was younger, have a shoulder massage, pat a kitten or Puppy and have a stroll in the garden..

Once again Golden Carers has come to the rescue. I live in a retirement village and calling on my years as a Diversional Therapist I constantly use the Golden Carers for new ideas to run my group in the village. I especially love the Read Aloud Audience Participation activity and I always pick a very shy resident to take a part. It is amazing how much it brings them out of their shell. The quiz always helps keeps their minds active and gives them such a feeling of self worth when they get a correct answer.
