"I open the garden gate, which creaks on old, worn hinges. The rose garden is peaceful but not silent. Bird song and the buzz of bees provide natures' melody. Somewhere in the distance, gentle music is playing and it relaxes me." Namaste Care engages people with advanced dementia through sensory input, comfort and pleasure and combines compassionate care with music, therapeutic touch, colour, food treats and scents. With ready-to-use structured sensory stories that can be easily applied in caring for people with advanced dementia, A Namaste Care Activity Book helps you to connect with people with advanced dementia through storytelling and sensory stimuli such as soundscapes, smells, tastes, tactile opportunities and visual cues. Early chapters give a foundational overview of the approach, exploring the effects of sensory stimulation in improving quality of life. With contributions and discussion from professionals across the field, chapters explore each of the senses separately, including aromatherapy, food and memory, and therapeutic use of lighting. In addition to guides for Namaste Care sessions, the book provides a starting point for writing your own stories tailored to the person for who you are caring Inspiring creativity and confidence in delivering Namaste Care, the activities provides valuable guidance in caring for and improving the lives of people with advanced dementia.
