“When the world wearies and society ceases to satisfy, there is always the garden.” Minnie Aumonier-18th Century Poet-
Having a cheerful garden will be an inspiration to dementia afflicted & Alzheimer’s patients. Their caregivers, families & providers also benefit from a well-designed, safe & colorful garden. These gardens can be a treatment tool for patients with Alzheimer’s who are very restless or agitated otherwise.
” When it comes to Alzheimer’s disease, they live in the moment,” said Greiner, director of Alzheimer’s services at the DeKalb County Rehab & Nursing Center. “Our job is to give them as many moments as possible.”
