Fremont Home Care

Contributed By: Caregiver Michele

I recommend offering (and adapting) activities to the abilities of those in your care. There should be elements of challenge and stimulation, along with opportunities for accomplishment, enjoyment and success. In addition to being fun, a jigsaw puzzle provides mental exercise - including problem solving, hand-eye coordination and recognition. At the same time, it can build self esteem and confidence. Add to that, the pleasure of spending time together and chatting.
