See how to fill a Memory Box with photos and memorabilia, then position it just right for a person with dementia. It helps "re-orient" them with surroundings, triggers conversations with visitors, helps them find their way and most importantly, recall memories and good times.

Great idea if the person with dementia doesn't tear them apart, as it happed at my house.
ReplyDeleteWhy on earth would you create something like this behind glass? Why not keep these items in a basket or open box? Lovely idea, but this implementation isn't really practical.
