Prevention Reminder: Virtual Activity Session

Currently, for the safety of everyone, taking extra precaution includes washing hands frequently to prevent the spread of disease. This continuous routine could be challenging for people who experience dementia. Helping those that may not remember to adopt this important habit is necessary for not only them but also to those that assist them. Preparing reminders and sending them to your loved ones home is the first step to combat the spread of unwanted germs. Assist them during your virtual time together by coaching them where to hang the reminders up. Share a song that they like to sing while washing their hands. Lastly, demonstrate the correct way to wash your hands. Everyone needs reminders, let’s help those who may need an extra one!
