Being a coordinator you have to work as a care home activity for that you must have ideas that encourage and comfort them by daily routine.

Prabhdyal Singh Sodhi Shares the activities that you can try out for dementia people:

Music Therapy: We all know that Music serves us positive effects and it is good for the brain and heart as well. Almost all the people love to hear music, be it young people, kids, elder people, or dementia people as well. You can add music therapy or music session to the schedule of your daily routine. Music sessions will go best for home activities if you do not want to do it regularly then schedule it on alternative days or decide the day on which you can take the session. To make music sessions more interesting can perform a live music concert just by making use of a regional band and performing with them on their favorite songs. 

Perform Drama: Drama is the second routine that you can add to your daily schedule after performing all those boring daily routines. Some people are also there who feel shy by performing drama activity. To make them comfortable you can do the same with them and provide comfort by performing this type of activity. You can also mimic and perform the drama of any Bollywood celebs. By acting of Bollywood celebs they will remember that actor, the movie songs, script lines, famous dialogue, and others. According to Prabhdyal Singh Sodhi, this tends to forget their issues, losing life, emotions, bad health, and helps to come out of depression. 

Beauty parlour and salons: Who doesn’t love pampering? And if that is from the parlor then it’s like you get all the happiness of your life. Performing a session in beauty parlor and salons with dementia people is the best thing to do. As this will remind their old good memories. You can do a lot of things like cutting nails, pedicures, manicures, hair cutting, hair massages, hair oiling, hair washing, wax, threading, and others. If you cannot do it by yourself then you can hire a beautician who can come care home and perform those activities. By hiring beauticians, dementia people will come to know how to do makeup and various types of hairstyling. Whereas for men you can hire a barber for your care home for grooming like hair cutting, shaving, beard trimming, and others. 

Host a party: Hosting a party is another exciting thing for dementia people. You can arrange a short party at your home too where you can invite your friends, their friends, and relatives. You can say it is a short get-together party where you will play lots of games, have delicious food, a lot of gossip will be there, especially when there is a group of ladies. Award ceremony must also be hosted after the party where the winners will get awards to say a dress, cake, or something that can be like that. Besides, it will be a great idea of hosting a karaoke night or birthday event. For your birthday you can décor your care home, bring cake and some gifts, play songs, dance, have delicious food and lots of enjoyment. 

Drop-in regional school children: It would be a great idea if some local school children can come to care homes to meet dementia people. There are some NGOs who have partnered with some local nursery schools and high schools. The reason behind these circumstances is that a lot of children will be able to meet with elder people occasionally. This will serve them the benefits of old and young people and an intergeneration conversation and interaction will take place daily. According to Prabhdyal Singh Sodhi, this is a great idea for dementia people as by talking to them they will forget their problems, poor health, and encourage them to fight more. 

Bring home a pet: We all must have heard the sentence that a ‘house is not a house without a pet’. So, it is the time when you must consider bringing a pet into your care home and becoming a part of their daily life activity. There are a lot of benefits that we can get from a pet in your care home. When we play with pets like dogs or cats, provides calmness and relaxation to our minds and hearts through their silly pranks that are entertaining as well. If your home is not enough to buy a pet then you can invite a pet therapy organization to visit your care home with their pets. 

Yoga and meditation: Last but not the least, yoga and meditation are something that provides advantages and at the same time good for mental and physical health. It will be best to include it in your daily life schedule as it will provide additional benefits when we do it regularly. It will be great to conduct a yoga and meditation section by yourself as it will cost you nothing otherwise can hire a yoga teacher who can visit your care home and offer their best services with guidance to all the dementia people but this will charge you the mentor fees. Stretching and breathing slowly are the benefits you can gain from yoga and meditation. 

Conclusion

To conclude, it has been suggested by Prabhdyal Singh Sodhi that you can use the above-mentioned activity as your daily routine activity. They will not cost you anything if done by you and will encourage them to fight back against the disease.
