Reminiscence Therapy to Manage BPSDs, Using an individual’s past life experience to give comfort in times of need and promote occupational engagement.
Course Description
Hello! Welcome to my Udemy course on using reminiscence therapy to manage behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSDs). Participants in this Udemy course will learn about the root causes (neurologically, physiologically, and psychologically) of behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia. Participants will also learn about reminiscence practices used to improve the quality of life of those suffering from dementia. This course contains firsthand experiences and behavioral measurements gained throughout a 14-week research project. The Udemy course includes lectures, presentations, activities, and resources to provide evidence-based research supporting this topic. First-hand reminiscence modalities, as well as templates, are provided within this course. Please feel free to download these templates and implement them if you are someone seeking a way to better connect with an individual with dementia. To close this presentation, there are four multiple-choice questions used to gauge your learning, the correct answers are provided. This course may take up to an hour to explore both the presentation and attached resources. An in-depth reference list is provided at the end. Please use these references to further your learning and understanding of this topic.
