Individual and group activities are detailed, along with techniques for adapting Montessori materials and procedures for use in long-term care settings. A description is provided of training procedures used with activities staff, to allow them to implement such activities within their regular programme schedules. In addition, activities staff relate examples of the effects of implementing such programmes on residents. (KJ/RH). |
