dementia expert

Activity professionals can act as teachers, counselors, a healing balm
or the soother, the smoother
of things gone wrong which may be of the heart
It may be the bones,
It may be the blood
or the brain’s chemicalswhen the dancer stops dancing through the loss of a limb
we map out and modify
for the resident to win
the original thrill
returned to it’s source
back to the fork in the road
before things went off course… We enliven, enrich, embrace, and encourage
we remove elements that cause to discourage
We enlighten and energize
the lost and forgotten
fan their flames, call their names
deny their Armageddon.
