Hi Kate,

I have added a pdf version of the file, please try again now.

This editable document is a Microsoft Word 98 file. You should be able to open if you have Microsoft Publisher 98 (or a more recent version) installed on your computer.

Cheers

i've worked in various facilities and i've noticed that most residents in the hostel area and Dementia Specific enjoy helping with domestic activities from making beds, washing and drying dishes, baking - mixing ingredients, hanging and folding washing, folding napkins, help setting up activities etc. They feel needed and a have a sense of self worth.kate

I have observed day care residents in Dementia Care respite cottage who are no longer verbal, singing and also following the printed words and thoroughly enjoying themselves. Music WORKS. Wendy N

Hi marina, Congratulations on your dedication! Learning the Ukelele
to enliven things up! Well done

I am in level 3 Dementia, I agree singalong is
a great activity, for the ones that dont sing they
play musical instruments, shakers, bells etc. I've even learned how to play the ukelele, and that certainly livens things up. Marina

I'm trying to learn Ukulele too it would be so much easier if I didn't have to keep changing chords! I have to play everything so slowly and you can still spot the changes...
