• Focus on the opportunity to spend time with other people.
• Focus on the opportunity to enjoy activities that they enjoy or used to enjoy such
as music, exercise, arts and crafts, card games, puzzles, etc.
• Present this as an opportunity to volunteer for others who may need their
assistance.
• Encourage them to be a role model for others during the day.
• Talk about the safety of being with others instead of being alone all day long.
• Present this as an opportunity for them to get a break from being with their
caregiver so much.
• Bring your family member to our center for a brief visit during a program that you
know they will enjoy.
