Reminiscence Work With Old People

by Clare Gillies, Anne James

Explains how, with short-term memory fading, older people can maintain a sense of their self by dwelling on events long past, and thus become less anxious and isolated, and how caregivers can learn much about their clients' worries and pre-occupations by knowing about their early past. Includes a chronology of events and lifestyles since 1900 to help caregivers place the stories they hear, and an extensive annotated bibliography. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
