From reading, singing, dancing or teaching a class on something you do best, volunteers are always welcomed and cherished. Since 1792, animals and children have been used to interact and provide therapy for healing and convalescing people. Once in a while, you will hear a bird chirp down the hall or see a docile cat stroll by like it owns the place. Visiting with an animal offers entertainment and makes their environment a little more like home. Tailor-fitting the degree of care to the person by evaluation and assessment is a major step toward change.
Life never stays the same, the only thing permanent is change.
Naturally, the degree of care would also change. With new medications and knowledge of prevention even the prognosis of alzheimer's patients is steadily improving. Changes in living conditions have also proven to have a positive effect on this group. Patients with alzheimer's seem to respond and flourish in smaller and simpler surroundings. The belief is that this allows them to feel more familiar and secure.
