Annotation | The author describes how her work as an occupational therapist involves family carers in devising appropriate sensory activity that engages or calms the individual with dementia. This area of work is also referred to as sensory stimulation, which involves use of multisensory environments or sensory rooms. Not only do such techniques help the person with dementia, but they also meet carers' needs, enabling them to carry on with their own lives at home. (RH). |
