Facilitating Spiritual Reminiscence for People with Dementia

A Learning Guide

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This practical guide teaches carers how to facilitate engaging and stimulating spiritual reminiscence sessions with older people, and particularly people with dementia. Spiritual reminiscence is a way of communicating that acknowledges the person as a spiritual being, and seeks to engage the person in a more meaningful and personal way. This book will not only help carers to understand the many and varied benefits of spiritual reminiscence, but also develop the skills, confidence and communication techniques needed to support people with dementia in this activity. The authors present in accessible terms the evidence-base to support the benefits of the approach and provide clear, step-by-step instructions for facilitating spiritual reminiscence sessions, including useful suggestions for ideas and questions to stimulate discussion.
