SHAILA 26th Apr 2018

Hi everyone! First of all I would like to say thank you for the tips and information, and of course all the great ideas given!!! I work in a nursery home as a psychologist. I'm trying to find an article, booklet,...any useful and clear information that could help a caregiver to understand dementia better (how to cope with his relative's behaviour problems, how to take care of himself,...).
Thanx a lot!

I'm thrilled that I discovered this marvellous site. It has become my "bible" for ideas, information and creativity. My clients absolutely love the activities I've picked up from Golden Carers. Thank you.
