What should i do for leisure activities for an elderly and frail person?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Reminiscence: Remininiscing has been shown to be an efffective way to reach older frail patients. This can be done with music, dancing, movies, reading, phot review- individually or in group. Even those with significant cognitive impairment will often respond . One needs to identify who the person was before they became infirmed- this will direct you to their interests.
