Friendship
Have a look at the following videos and links about friendships:
Agnes was diagnosed with dementia in her fifties. Five years have passed and she is still struggling with her new identity, and the loss of who she once was. We follow Agnes in her quest for renewal and along the way our notions of what it means to have dementia are challenged and given a fresh perspective. A film about friendship and living with dementia.
This video shows us how to make a surprise message card.
Could you make one for someone special?
Friendship and Dementia
One of the key aspects of Alzheimer Scotland’s 5 Pillar Model of Post Diagnostic Support is ‘Supporting Community Connections.’ This involves working closely with people to maintain and build on their existing social networks, to enhance their quality of life and maximise the natural support they receive from those around them, helping to avoiding isolation and reducing future reliance on care services.
