Time spent with an older adult should be meaningful and sometimes it is difficult
to think of what to say or what to do during visits. Time Well Spent provides the
family member, the friends, the caregiver, or the volunteer with Ideas! Ideas! Ideas!
That is what this book is all about. It is a resource that will be used over and
over again - a springboard to making those visit just a little more special.
Great resource for:
- A therapist who wants to help families enhance their connection with a loved one
with communication or memory difficulties
- A friend or family member of an older adult who would like ideas of things to do
when they are spending time together
- Anyone looking for something to give a person whose loved one just moved into assisted
living or nursing home
- A volunteer or someone who provides special care services in the home of an older
adult
- An activity professional looking for new ideas to add to their programs
Time Well Spent has 8 chapters filled with fun, meaningful activities that inspire
communication with conversation starters, things to do, puzzles and ideas children
can implement. Chapters include things to do for spring, summer, winter, fall and
ideas for areas of interest such as food, hobbies and leisure, entertainment as
well as friends and family.
