Reminiscence

In a nutshell, reminiscence involves encouraging a person with dementia to talk about their past and making them feel good through remembering and sharing. Reminiscence is, by definition, meaningful. You can help make it achievable by stimulating the reminiscence, encouraging more recall and helping the person with dementia through any difficulties with expressing themselves. Many older people, particularly people with dementia, seem to live in the past, so to get them to reminisce is often easy. I will share some skills and tips that may elicit a greater range of reminiscences and increase how good the person feels after sharing those memories.
