There is an issue regarding some of the elderly’s having bad memory. One example of this problem they face is that they often forget where is the remote controls are placed after using it. To tackle this issue, we have found a method in an article to tackle this issue. It was found that the aged themselves are required to understand the importance of undergoing fitness programs which will stimulate, not their bodies, but their brain to improve their memory. Hence, programs were devised to conduct lessons for the elderly, letting them learn more about their own health issues and teaching them on how to improve it themselves through small activities which they can do on their own every day. One such example is to try to remember some tiny details such as names, dates or location of household objects. All these actions may not seem to be very effective, but it still help to stimulate the brain and keep it active. As people get older, it takes more time for them to remember all these little information they see. Hence, without any effort to stimulate their brain, their memory would worsen as they get even older.
What: A lesson to teach the elderly on the importance of keeping
their brain active and ‘exercising’ it, and how to do it.
Why: The elderly themselves do not know the negative effects of
not stimulating their brains frequently, which leads to bad memory loss,
affecting their normal lives.
When: The problems become worse
Who: The elderly
Where: In Maryland Los Angeles, 115 seniors who are living in two
full service continuing-care retirement communities.
How: They provide a training course which are different from other
cognitive courses, education is one of the factor to impact memory ability and
not just only offered memory training techniques. Participants may received
education on a antioxidants in diet rich, daily physical exercise and relaxing
are also very important in the part of curriculum.
