Gifts for those with memory loss
Deciding what holiday gifts to give a person with memory loss can be challenging. Following are some tips to share with family members.
The gift of time:
A special date to share cookies and send holiday cards to others
A time to share and wrap gifts (before the rush)
Attending seasonal music events or caroling together
A person with early-stage memory loss is often still striving to do his or her usual activities. Gifts that provide reminder systems or simplify daily tasks are useful.
