AnnotationAn occupational therapist uses her experience of providing expressive opportunities for people with dementia in long-stay and assessment wards, and to consider what it means to be creative. The arts, specifically arts and crafts, can be used to enrich the lives of people with dementia. Suggestions are made for imaginative but inexpensive activities. An activity pack is also available, which complements this publication. (RH).
