begrowthbrenda

In this video I share 6 tips for meaningful engagement (activities). I often hear this from personal and professional caregivers that their person living with dementia: they don't do anything; they just sit there; I can't get them involved in activities.


Here are 6 simple tips for success:

  1. Ensure the engagement is purposeful or meaningful to the person

  2. Utilize Finding the Root - a method I developed - to identify what they have enjoyed and what they can do today

  3. Break down activities into manageable steps

  4. Model what success looks like

  5. Make sure the environment speaks to the action

  6. Engagements can be a variety of things - "activities" like hobbies, crafts or gardening, and they can be everyday domestic or care actions
