Healthcare professionals working with seniors are often asked by their patients: “Is there anything I can do to help my memory?”
The answer is yes: cognitive remediation therapy. This method of therapy is based on the idea that cognitive skills can be built with guided practice. With the help of a licensed clinician, patients can learn how to transfer skills that are practiced with paper and pencil and digital activities to the real world.
The picture above is an activity for dementia patients HappyNeuron Pro offers to help with remembering faces. Remembering loved ones is an important part of life, which gets compromised as dementia progresses. Cognitive training may help people with dementia develop some strategies to help remember their friends and family before the disease becomes too severe.
HappyNeuron Pro provides 45+ exercises that can be used for cognitive remediation therapy. Areas of cognition that licensed therapists can work on with dementia populations include executive functioning, language, mathematical skills, visual processing, auditory processing, memory, processing speed and spatial reasoning. These exercises can be modified according to a person’s level of functioning. What this does is allow therapists to pinpoint weaknesses and tailor therapy to address these. As dementia progresses, exercises can be modified to be less difficult to still provide cognitive stimulation.
