Another thing our staff learned in training with MarySue Moses is how using this "Beach Ball Globe" to play catch with someone with Alzheimer's Disease and Dementia and asking them where they've been? It was a great way to start a conversation and unlock some of those stories that have been hidden away in someone's mind.
Those with dementia are still people and they still have stories and they still have character and they're all individuals and they're all unique. And they just need to be interacted with on a human level. -Carey Mulligan
