Engaging Environments
Check out this video!
This video is a great example of how changing the environment may help caregivers and persons living with dementia cope with changes in cognitive function!
Help us build a list of changes/additions you can make to create a more dementia-friendly living space:
Kitchen/Dining Area: Bathroom:
- Use coloured plates (to contrast with food) - Install a motion-sensored light (to ensure
accessibility at night)
Living Room: Bedroom:
- Remove area rugs (to prevent tripping) - Add pictures of family members (to create a
familiar/comfortable space)
Please add your suggestions in the comments section!
