Dementia Products
There are several key considerations to think about when choosing dementia products. Every person with dementia is unique, so their interests, abilities and preferences should be taken into consideration.
The following can help when deciding what products best support your loved one:
- Caregiver Support: Things to do both together and alone.
- Ease of Use/Simplicity: Products that have minimal complexity and provide clear instructions.
- Memory Support: Large calendars, digital clocks with day and date, labeling systems and white boards with daily instructions can be very helpful.
- Familiarity: Familiar objects and activities from the past can trigger memories and emotion (checkers, photo albums, etc.)
Types of Alzheimer's products
There are various types of Alzheimer’s products that can be used to assist both the individual and their caregiver depending on the individuals cognitive abilities. Keep in mind that when selecting a product, it’s important to consider the person’s abilities and preferences. Jigsaw puzzles can be a great way to pass time with people in the early to mid-stages of dementia. Dice games like Bunco are fun and appropriate for early-stage dementia. Card games, board games, memory books and art projects are also helpful for memory, sensory stimulation and coordination. Check out a range of options related to dementia toys that can provide valuable engagement and stimulation.
