Memory Strategies for People with Difficulties
Treating Memory Impairments, Vicki S. Dohrman. A great resource that starts by describing many of the different internal and external memory strategies that have been used effectively by people with memory difficulties, particularly those who suffer from Alzheimer's – mnemonics, motor cuing, association, reading strategies, and memory books. It then shows how to develop a step-by-step training program for helping clients learn to use the individualized memory strategies effectively. Reproducible pages include memory book pages, training worksheets, environmental cue stickers, and handouts for other therapists and caregivers. 210 pages, softcover, wire binding.
