I have been a healthcare professional and educator for over 20 years. I am the, activity director, of many years, at Hunt Nursing and Rehabilitation Center in Danvers. While there, I have gained much dementia care and activity experience and knowledge. I have had special training in dementia care and dementia activities through the Alzheimer’s Association and other educational forums. I am the author of Adorable Photographs of Our Baby-Meaningful, Mind-Stimulating Activities and More for the Memory Challenged, Their Loved Ones, and Involved Professionals, a book for those with dementia and an excellent resource for caregivers and healthcare professionals.
