When people get older, cognitive decline is almost always a part of the phase. But this is not to say that we should accept this as normal. Cognitive decline diseases, such as dementia or Alzheimer’s, can be slowed or prevented through proper care of our physical, cognitive, and mental health.
Our group home takes care of our residents’ overall health. We support them physically by providing nutritious meals every day. We also keep them company, so they would not feel lonely. When it comes to improving our residents’ cognitive health, we encourage them to engage in memory-stimulating activities.
Here are some examples of brain-stimulating activities that seniors can enjoy in their homes or an assisted living facility:
- Trivia Quizzes
Having trivia games with seniors not only stimulates their brains but also allows them to engage with others and have a good time. - Solving Puzzles
Crossword puzzles and sudoku are great mind-stimulating activities for seniors. Seniors with mobility problems can also enjoy solving these puzzles in their assisted living home in Minneapolis, Minnesota. - Learning a New Language
Learning new things and engaging in new hobbies are still possible for seniors. We encourage them to try learning a new language and its culture.
